Do plaque-related factors affect the diagnostic performance of an AI-CADS?
In this study, the authors aimed to investigate the effects of plaque-related factors, if any, on the diagnostic performance of an artificial intelligence coronary-assisted diagnosis system (AI-CADS). This was undertaken by analyzing 1,224 vessels in 306 patients. The authors were able to determine that AI-CADS has the ability to distinguish ≥50% coronary stenosis, but found that an additional manual interpretation
