AI model predicts cardiovascular risk from BACs on mammograms
By Amerigo Allegretto
An AI model showed success in using age-adjusted breast arterial calcifications from mammograms to predict cardiovascular events.

Example of Percentile Nomogram With Age-Adjusted BAC Quartiles. (A) Mammogram of a 56-year-old woman. There is evident BAC (pink arrow). This was quantified as a BAC score of 30 using the cmAngio tool. (B) Nomogram indicating that a BAC score of 30 places a 56-year-old woman within the 50th to 75th percentile for her age.

AI plus CCTA cuts plaque analysis time, predicts cardiac event risk
By Kate Madden Yee
A deep-learning model quantifies coronary plaque volume from coronary CT angiography (CCTA) images.
April 21, 2026
Two representative cases demonstrate the performance of PlaqueSegNet for coronary plaque segmentation. (A–D) Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) and intravascular US (IVUS) images in a 65-year-old male patient with chest pain for two months show plaque. (A) Cross-sectional IVUS image shows a lipid-rich plaque (hypoechoic, arrows). (B) Axial and (C) cross-sectional CCTA images show the same plaque (low-attenuation area, yellow line and arrows) in the proximal left anterior descending artery. (D) PlaqueSegNet segmentation of the noncalcified plaque (yellow shading) and coronary lumen (green shading) in the cross-sectional image. (E–G) CCTA images in a 57-year old female patient with chest pain for three months show multiple plaques. (E) Volume-rendered CCTA image of the coronary tree shows PlaqueSegNet plaque segmentation (yellow) in the right and left coronary arteries. (F, G) PlaqueSegNet segmentation delineates a mixed plaque (yellow shading) and coronary lumen (green shading) in the left main artery and proximal-to-mid left anterior descending artery.
