16 17 18 A myocardial infarction (MI) is a common occurrence in coronary artery 19 disease. Inflammatory arterial plaques that form stenotic lesions are implicated 20 in the disease progression. If stenosis is caught early, lifestyle changes including 21 improved diet, exercise, weight management, and smoking cessation can reduce 22 cardiac events. Surgical interventions, including coronary artery bypass surgery, 23 stents, and angioplasty, may however be necessary. It is critical to identify 24 potentially obstructive, stenotic arteries before an MI occurs. Inspection of 25 pathological artery anatomy and conventional coronary angiography [1] are 26 invasive techniques for this purpose. The pressure change before and after an 27 arterial lesion can also be measured using a pressure-sensitive guidewire; this 28 yields low fractional flow reserve (FFR),[2] an indicator of coronary stenosis [3]. 29 Percutaneous coronary interventions can improve patient outcomes and reduce 30 subsequent events, but have limited therapeutic utility in severe lesions and 31 distal arterial vasculature [1]. Further, these invasive approaches only provide 32 coarse metrics such as vessel narrowing, with little detail about the degree of 33 atherosclerosis, and can be susceptible to motion artifacts [1]. 34 In ‘Deep Learning-based Prediction of Coronary Artery Stenosis Resistance’, 35 Sun et al developed a non-invasive protocol to predict FFR and stenotic risk 36 from computational classifiers applied to patient-specific coronary artery data. 37 This entailed a) developing a large set of 3D idealized geometries informed 38 from patient-derived coronary artery data, b) simulations to estimate FFR for 39 idealized geometries, and c) training classifiers based on simulated FFR data to 40 index patient-derived coronary artery data (see Fig. 1). 41 42The Sun et al study leverages published patient vascular data in order to 43 predict stenosis in arterial geometries from a non-invasive technique: Computerized 44 tomography angiography. This technique creates 3D reconstructions of patient 45 vasculature from X-rays that can identify stenosis that strongly associate with 46 cardiovascular disease [2]. Computerized tomography angiography provides 47 ample data including vessel length and width that can be used with analytic 48 models to reliably predict FFR. One such model, the Bernoulli equation, quantifies 49 energy losses within a lesion due to ‘pressure drops’ from convection and constriction 50 at the stenotic region, diffusion, and expansion from the lesioned vessel to 51 non-stenotic regions [3]. 52
