Impact of Deep Learning-Based Image Conversion on Fully Automated Coronary Artery Calcium Scoring Using Thin-Slice, Sharp-Kernel, Non-Gated, Low-Dose Chest CT Scans: A Multi-Center Study
Deep learning-based conversion of LDCT images originally obtained with thin slices and a sharp kernel can enhance the accuracy of automated coronary artery calcium score measurement using the images.
