Int J Cardiovasc Imaging 26:817-28. 2010..Our method detected coronary calcifications with an accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of 98.27, 92.07 and 98.62%, respectively, for a testing dataset of non-contrast computed tomography scans from 105 subjects...
Segmental analysis of carotid arterial strain using speckle-trackingEric Y Yang
Department of Medicine, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, Texas 77030, USA
J Am Soc Echocardiogr 24:1276-1284.e5. 2011..The aims of this study were to evaluate whether speckle-tracking could be used to measure carotid arterial strain (CAS) reproducibly in healthy volunteers and to determine if CAS was lesser in individuals with diabetes...
