We read with great interest the article by Barb et al. entitled “Accuracy of fully automated iliac artery tortuosity measurements in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm using deep learning” [1], published in the European Journal of Radiology. The authors are to be congratulated for providing a large, multicenter external validation of an automated approach addressing a complex vascular morphometric parameter.
We scan the top radiology sources so you don’t have to.
From AI breakthroughs to imaging trends, we serve up real-time radiology insights.

Impact of DSA-based postoperative cerebral blood flow cascades on outcomes in acute ischemic stroke patients undergoing successful endovascular thrombectomy
Half of patients with acute ischemic stroke caused by large vessel occlusion (AIS-LVO) fail to achieve functional independence after endovascular treatment (EVT), which may be related to the ineffective restoration of cerebral blood flow in ischemic brain tissue despite revascularization. Therefore, a comprehensive model to assess postoperative cerebral blood flow cascade (pCBF) may provide additional information for treatment.
