AI-enabled Automated Cardiac Chambers Volumetry In Non-contrast ECG-gated Cardiac Scans Vs. Non-contrast Non-gated Lung Scans

Introduction: We have developed an AI-enabled automated volume measurement of cardiac chambers (AutoChamber) that works on ECG-gated coronary artery calcium scans and correlates well with contrast enhanced coronary CT angiography scans. We have recently reported that increased left atrial volume measured by AutoChamber is a strong predictor of new onset atrial fibrillation (Afib) in asymptomatic individuals of Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis (MESA). In this study, we compare the volumetry results in ECG- gated CAC scans with those of non-gated full-chest lung cancer screening scans in the same individuals.
