Abstract :
[en] Screening for coronary artery disease is a major health issue, knowing that the most common cause of death in industrialized countries is cardiovascular pathology (coronary artery disease, stroke, other cardiovascular diseases). Computer Aided Diagnosis systems (CADx) can assist cardiologists to and play a key role in detecting abnormalities and
treating coronary arteries. In this paper we propose a deep learning classification method based on a new Hybrid CNN-LSTM Architecture. The aim of our method is to detect the presence of stenosis in the coronary arteries and to classify the type of arteries. Our experiments have been conducted using an anonymized database from a Belgian hospital (CHR Mons-Hainaut) thanks to a retrospective study.
