About this trial

The VASCULAID-RETRO study, within the broader VASCULAID project, aims to create artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms that can predict cardiovascular events and the progression of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) and peripheral arterial disease (PAD). The study plans to gather and analyze data from at least 5000 AAA and 6000 PAD patients, combining existing cohorts and retrospectively collected data. During this project, AI tools will be developed to perform automatic anatomical segmentation and analyses on multimodal imaging. AI prediction algorithms will be developed based on multisource data (imaging, medical history, -omics).

Trial outcomes

Primary outcomes

1

Development of disease progression prediction algorithms

The primary goal of this retrospective study is to develop and train algorithms to predict disease progression and risk of cardiovascular events in AAA and PAD patients by leveraging multi-parametric data from 5000 AAA (\>1000 in AUMC) and 6000 PAD (\>1000 in AUMC) patients from existing cohorts and biobanks.

Time frame
3 years

Secondary outcomes

1

Internal validation of disease progression prediction algorithms

The secondary objective will be the internal validation of the developed algorithms using data from retrospective cohorts.
