Does a deep learning algorithm based on facial photos improve CAD detection in a Chinese cohort?
A deep learning algorithm using facial photos shows feasibility as a novel, non-invasive tool for CAD screening and pre-test probability assessment.
Our results suggested that a deep learning algorithm based on facial photos can assist in CAD detection in this Chinese cohort. This technique may hold promise for pre-test CAD probability assessment in outpatient clinics or CAD screening in community. Further studies to develop a clinical available tool are warranted.
