Description

In this paper, we presented different deep learning approaches for automatic characterization of plaque composition in carotid US images. Our preliminary results showed promising accuracy for atherosclerotic plaque type classification, but risk stratification of carotid atherosclerotic patients remains challenging due to complexity of the tissue and additional risk factors which contribute to the stratification.
