Vascular ultrasound-based risk stratification model for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus

 Published on 10/07/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Chen, Cuie et al. | BMC Medical Imaging. Volume 26(1).

This study aimed to investigate the ability of an ultrasound-based risk stratification model integrating carotid intima thickness (CIT) and carotid-femoral pulse wave velocity (cfPWV) to aid in risk stratification and assessment of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD) in patients with type...

Interpretation between CAD-RADS & CAC-DRS CT angiography reporting systems to evaluate coronary artery disease severity

 Published on 03/07/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Abd El Halim, Alaa Mahmoud et al. | Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine. Volume 56(1).

Noninvasive evaluation of coronary artery disease (CAD) by coronary-computed tomography angiography (CCTA) was progressively applied. One indicator of coronary atherosclerosis is the calcium score. However, little research has been done about how severe stenosis is related to it. Objective: The main...

Lumen imaging in calcified coronary arteries using high-resolution Gd-enhanced color K-edge imaging with spectral photon-counting CT: a phantom study

 Published on 26/06/2026 |  Original article (Full-text)  | Dobrolinska, Magdalena M. et al. | European Radiology Experimental. Volume 10(1).

Conventional coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) lumen assessment is hampered by the similar attenuation of iodine and calcium. We assessed the lumen for Gd-enhanced CCTA on high-resolution color Gd K-edge imaging using a clinical spectral photon-counting computed tomography (SPCCT) prototype...
