Artificial Intelligence in Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography: From Anatomy to Prognosis

Figure 4

Application of AI on CCTA in the clinical setting. First, CCTA images are processed using an AI algorithm; subsequently, the patients can be further classified in three groups: patients without obstructive CAD, patients that need invasive coronary angiography, and patients with stenosis that could benefit from functional imaging. In the cohort of patients classified to functional imaging such as CT perfusion or CT-FFR, an algorithm of AI can be applied in order to speed up the process.
