Cross-Modal Contrastive Learning of ECG and Angiography Representations for Severe Stenosis Classification

Summary

arXiv:2606.02605v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Coronary artery stenosis is a common cardiovascular disease, with severe, untreated cases posing significant risks of heart attack. Although coronary (X-ray) angiograms remain the standard for stenosis diagnosis, they are invasive, time- and resource-intensive, and therefore only performed on patients with a high probability of disease based on symptoms and prior clinical tests. However, a subset of patients, especially those without symptoms, may remain undiagnosed.
