Volume Measurements for Surveillance after Endovascular Aneurysm Repair using Artificial Intelligence

Surveillance after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) is suboptimal due to limited compliance and relatively large variability in measurement methods of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) sac size after treatment. Measuring volume offers a more sensitive early indicator of aneurysm sac growth or regression/stability, but is more time consuming and thus less practical than measuring maximum diameter. This study evaluated the accuracy and consistency of the artificial intelligence (AI) driven software PRAEVAorta 2 and compared it with an established semi-automated segmentation method.
