Accurate coronary Digital Subtraction Angiography (DSA) vessel segmentation is essential for computer-aided diagnosis and treatment planning of coronary artery disease (CAD). However, thin low-contrast vessels, background interference, and severe vessel-background class imbalance make reliable segmentation of weak distal branches and vessel boundaries challenging.
The paper introduces VasoMIM, a vascular anatomy‑aware masked image modeling framework for X‑ray angiogram analysis, which uses an anatomy‑guided masking strategy and an anatomical consistency loss to learn robust vascular representations. It also presents XA‑170K, the largest pre‑training dataset for X‑ray angiograms. Experiments on six datasets and four downstream tasks show that VasoMIM outperforms existing methods and achieves state‑of‑the‑art performance.

X‑LMC is a spatiotemporal deep‑learning framework that automatically scores leptomeningeal collateral (LMC) status from time‑resolved biplane digital subtraction angiography (DSA). It uses a DINOv2 backbone to encode spatial frames, a token‑level cross‑view attention module to fuse orthogonal projections, and a recurrent network to model contrast bolus dynamics. On a multicenter dataset of 134 M1‑segment occlusion patients, X‑LMC achieved a Quadratic Weighted Kappa of 0.398 and a macro‑F1 of 0.711, outperforming static and other spatiotemporal baselines and matching clinical inter‑rater agreement.
