AI project seeks methods for stenosis detection in coronary angiograms

A user on r/MachineLearning is seeking advice for a project focused on detecting stenoses in coronary angiograms. They are exploring methods beyond initial YOLO attempts, considering a radius profile along the vessel combined with a filtering network. A significant challenge highlighted is the evaluation of the model's performance, given that ground truth annotations from doctors are often incomplete, making accurate recall calculation difficult. The user is also requesting recommendations for relevant papers, repositories, and public datasets. AI

IMPACT This project could lead to improved AI tools for medical diagnosis, though it is currently a specific application rather than a broad industry trend.
