A CUBS-Compatible Ultrasound Morphology and Uncertainty-Aware Baseline for Carotid Intima-Media Segmentation and Preliminary Risk Prediction
Carotid atherosclerosis is a major contributor to ischemic stroke and transient ischemic attack. Conventional ultrasound assessment is commonly based on intima-media thickness, plaque appearance, stenosis degree, and peak systolic velocity, but these morphology- and velocity-based indicators may not fully capture patient-specific vascular risk. This study presents AtheroFlow-XNet, a CUBS-compatible ultrasound morphology and uncertainty-aware learning baseline for carotid intima-media segmentation and preliminary risk prediction. Using the Carotid Ultrasound Boundary Study dataset, manual lumen-intima and media-adventitia boundary annotations were converted into dense intima-media masks fo...
