Will #AI enhance care of patients?
Yes!
How?
-Improved reliability
-Atherosclerosis guided Rx
-Risk prediction
-Requires validation ✅

Proud to share my #SCCT2021 talk (1/5)
AI & ML in #YesCCT: New Frontiers in Atherosclerosis

AI & ML in #YesCCT: New Frontiers in Atherosclerosis

-The field of #YesCCT has evolved rapidly
-Current CV risk prediction models are inadequate – can AI help?
-Average imager may read > 1 billion pixels per day

Great session on Artificial Intelligence and Machine learning with session chairs @imagingmedsci, Dr. Bratt, @michael_t_lu, @ivanaisgum, Dr. Al'Aref and @DeCeccoCN at #SCCT2021!

#ICYMI - Here's a brief tweetorial from the #YesCCT session (1/7)

1⃣: The big picture & black box by Dr. Michael Lu
-Multiple “black box” definitions
-Explainability
-Predictability
-More accurate than SOC, visualizes output (& modifiable), communicates uncertainty (eg grey-zone FFR-CT)
