A, Three-dimensional heart surface model generated from the computed tomography (CT) scan is used to compute the right ventricular volume (VRV) and left ventricular volume (VLV) and the corresponding ratio (VRV/VLV), pre (A) and post (B) treatment with ultrasound-facilitated,catheter-directed fibrinolysis. Axial slices from pre and post-treatment show increased distal vessel visibility (C and D). CT vascular reconstruction before (E) and after treatment (F) show increased distal vasculature, labeled as arterial (blue) and venous (red) by an automated convolutional neural network trained on previously manually labeled data sets. Decreased distal venous vascular volume density at baseline is associated with increased VRV/VLV ratio at baseline (G) without similar finding on the arterial phase (H). The density of distal arterial volume adjusted by the venous volume is associated with increased baseline VRV/VLV ratio (I) and with VRV/VLV response to treatment (J).
