Artificial Intelligence in CT Angiography for the Detection of Coronary Artery Stenosis and Calcified Plaque: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Purpose: We aimed to evaluate the diagnostic performance of artificial intelligence (AI) in detecting coronary artery stenosis and calcified plaque on CT angiography (CTA), comparing its diagnostic performance with that of radiologists.
Methods: A thorough search of the literature was performed using PubMed, Web of Science, and Embase, focusing on studies published until October 2024. Studies were included if they evaluated AI models in detecting coronary artery stenosis and calcified plaque on CTA. A bivariate random-effects model was employed to determine combined sensitivity and specificity. Study heterogeneity was assessed using I2 statistics. The risk of bias was assessed using the revised quality assessment of diagnostic accuracy studies-2 tool, and the evidence level was graded using the Grading of Recommendations Assessment, Development and Evalutiuon (GRADE) system.
Results: Out of 1071 initially identified studies, 17 studies with 5560 patients and images were ultimately included for the final analysis. For coronary artery stenosis ≥50%, AI showed a sensitivity of 0.92 (95% CI: 0.88-0.95), specificity of 0.87 (95% CI: 0.80-0.92), and AUC of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.94-0.97), outperforming radiologists with sensitivity of 0.85 (95% CI: 0.67-0.94), specificity of 0.84 (95% CI: 0.62-0.94), and AUC of 0.91 (95% CI: 0.89-0.93). For stenosis ≥70%, AI achieved a sensitivity of 0.88 (95% CI: 0.70-0.96), specificity of 0.96 (95% CI: 0.90-0.99), and AUC of 0.98 (95% CI: 0.96-0.99). In calcified plaque detection, AI demonstrated a sensitivity of 0.93 (95% CI: 0.84-0.97), specificity of 0.94 (95% CI: 0.88-0.96), and AUC of 0.98 (95% CI: 0.96-0.99)."
Conclusion: AI-based CT demonstrated superior diagnostic performance compared to clinicians in identifying ≥50% stenosis in coronary arteries and showed excellent diagnostic performance in recognizing ≥70% coronary artery stenosis and calcified plaque. However, limitations include retrospective study designs and heterogeneity in CTA technologies. Further external validation through prospective, multicenter trials is required to confirm these findings.
