Figure 2. AI-enhanced diagnostic and therapeutic pathway in stable coronary artery disease. The figure illustrates a stepwise workflow from the patient presentation with chest pain to the final treatment decision. Coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) is performed and processed through artificial intelligence (AI)-based techniques including AI-QCT for plaque characterization and FFR-CT for functional assessment. These outputs guide clinical decision making, resulting in either optimized medical therapy or percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI).
