Deep Learning-Based Automated Quantification of TIMI Myocardial Perfusion Frame Count (DL-TMPFC) from Coronary Angiography: A Novel Framework for Rapid Assessment of Microvascular Dysfunction 文章
摘要
arXiv:2605.24012v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Aims: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD) affects approximately 40%-60% of patients with ischemia and non-obstructive coronary arteries, yet diagnosis remains challenging due to reliance on invasive functional testing or subjective Thrombolysis In Myocardial Infarction (TIMI) flow grade. The TIMI Myocardial Perfusion Frame Count (TMPFC) offers an objective, angiography-based quantitative measure of CMVD, but its clinical translation is hindered by cumbersome manual calculation and insufficient validation. This study aims to develop and validate a deep learning-powered TMPFC calculation (DL-TMPFC), enabling integration into clinical workflows. Methods and results: DL-TMPFC framework comprised two components. A stenosis detection network first excluded obstructive coronary artery disease (CAD).
