Detecting Vascular Bifurcation in IVOCT Images Using Convolutional Neural Networks With Transfer Learning

Optical coherence tomography (OCT) technology enables experts to analyze coronary lesions from high-resolution intravascular images. Studies have shown a relationship between vascular bifurcation and a higher occurrence of wall thickening and lesions in these areas. Some level of automation could be...
