• Abstract summary: We describe the development of an AI algorithm and workflow for assisting interpreting physicians in CCTA screening for the absence of coronary atherosclerosis. The algorithm demonstrated strong performance with AUC-ROC = 0.96. There is potential for this AI application to assist in CCTA interpretation to help extricate atherosclerosis from chest-pain presentations.

• Abstract: Coronary Computed Tomography Angiography (CCTA) evaluation of chest-pain patients in an Emergency Department (ED) is considered appropriate. While a negative CCTA interpretation supports direct patient discharge from an ED, labor-intensive analyses are required, with accuracy in jeopardy from distractions. We describe the development of an Artificial Intelligence (AI) algorithm and workflow for assisting interpreting physicians in CCTA screening for the absence of coronary atherosclerosis. The two-phase approach consisted of (1) Phase 1 - focused on the development and preliminary testing of an algorithm for vessel-centerline extraction classification in a balanced study population (n = 500 with 50% disease prevalence) derived by retrospective random case selection; and (2) Phase 2 - concerned with simulated-clinical Trialing of the developed algorithm on a per-case basis in a more real-world study population (n = 100 with 28% disease prevalence) from an ED chest-pain series. This allowed pre-deployment evaluation of the AI-based CCTA screening application which provides a vessel-by-vessel graphic display of algorithm inference results integrated into a clinically capable viewer. Algorithm performance evaluation used Area Under the Receiver-Operating-Characteristic Curve (AUC-ROC); confusion matrices reflected ground-truth vs AI determinations. The vessel-based algorithm demonstrated strong performance with AUC-ROC = 0.96. In both Phase 1 and Phase 2, independent of disease prevalence differences, negative predictive values at the case level were very high at 95%. The rate of completion of the algorithm workflow process (96% with inference results in 55-80 seconds) in Phase 2 depended on adequate image quality. There is potential for this AI application to assist in CCTA interpretation to help extricate atherosclerosis from chest-pain presentations.

  A large training data set is required for a standard deep learning-based model to learn this strategy from data.

In line with the augmentation scheme, we use a 3D-DenseNet fed with task-specific input, fostering a side-by-side comparison between the hemispheres.
