Synopsis

Keywords: Myocardium, Cardiovascular

Motivation: The 3D fusion of coronary structure and myocardial blood flow data helps to reduce the misallocation of affected vessels to their associated myocardial territories.

Goal(s): An AI-based pipeline has been developed that uses advanced machine learning algorithms to automatically fuse images from cardiac CTCA and perfusion MRI.

Approach: The pipeline includes an automatic reorientation of 3D CT coronary angiography and fusion with stress cardiovascular magnetic resonance images.

Results: we achieved 3D fusion of CTCA and CMR establishing a correlation between coronary artery stenosis and stress-induced myocardial hypoperfusion.

Impact: the pipeline can assist in clinical assessments of coronary artery disease.
