AI for Coronary Artery Disease Diagnosis

Zebra Medical – Coronary calcium scoring

Coronary calcium scoring is a biomarker of coronary artery disease and quantification of this coronary calcification is a very strong predictor for cardiovascular events, including heart attacks or strokes.

A conventional coronary calcium scoring requires dedicated cardiac, ECG gated CT performed with and without contrast.

However, in recent times, a reliable derivation of coronary calcium score has been found algorithmically with the use of AI from low dose chest CT data. Zebra Medical’s scoring algorithm uses these standard, non-contrast Chest CTs and automatically calculates the Coronary Calcium Scores.

The tool is vital for the early detection of people at high risk of severe cardiovascular events that otherwise would not be aware of the risk without extensive testing.
