Holistic AI analysis of hybrid cardiac perfusion images for mortality prediction
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Low-dose computed tomography attenuation correction (CTAC) scans are used in hybrid myocardial perfusion imaging (MPI) for attenuation correction and coronary calcium scoring, and contain additional anatomic and pathologic information not utilized in clinical assessment. We seek to uncover the full potential of these scans utilizing a holistic artificial intelligence (AI) approach. A multi-structure model segmented 33 structures and quantified 15 radiomics features in each organ in 10,480 patients from 4 sites. Coronary calcium and epicardial fat measures were obtained from separate AI models. The area under the receiver-operating characteristic curves (AUC) for all-cause mortality prediction of the model utilizing MPI, CT, stress test, and clinical features was 0.80 (95% confidence interval [0.74-0.87]), which was higher than for coronary calcium (0.64 [0.57-0.71]) or perfusion (0.62 [0.55-0.70]), with p < 0.001 for both. A comprehensive multimodality approach can significantly improve mortality prediction compared to MPI information alone in patients undergoing hybrid MPI.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
