摘要:
目的 通过分析国内外人工智能在颈动脉斑块超声检查中的研究情况和进展,为人工智能应用于颈动脉斑块超声图像识别与分析的研究提供参考方向。 方法 检索中国知网(CNKI)、万方、Web of Science、PubMed和IEEE数据库建库至2024年12月人工智能在颈动脉斑块超声检查中的相关研究文献,利用CiteSpace进行可视化分析。 结果 经检索和筛选后,最终纳入14篇中文文献和88篇外文文献,国内外在人工智能应用于颈动脉斑块超声检查方面发表的文献数量较少,发文趋势均趋于平缓,相关研究作者和机构之间存在合作,但合作密切程度较低,出现频次较高的关键词有深度学习、机器学习、斑块分割、脑卒中、卷积神经网络、斑块特征等。 结论 国内外人工智能在颈动脉斑块超声检查中的研究热点主要集中在深度学习在识别超声图像中颈动脉斑块方面的应用、基于人工智能的斑块分割技术、人工智能分析颈动脉斑块超声特征与脑卒中和心血管疾病发生的关系等方面,计算机辅助诊断和分类算法将成为人工智能在颈动脉斑块超声检查中的研究趋势;同时,由于目前人工智能在颈动脉斑块超声检查中的研究较少,其在临床实践中的应用价值有待证实及提高,未来需要更多研究者投入到人工智能应用于颈动脉斑块超声检查研究中。 Abstract:Objective To provide a reference direction for the research on the application of artificial intelligence (AI) in the recognition and analysis of carotid plaque ultrasound images by analyzing the research status and progress of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound at home and abroad. Methods Using the China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, Web of Science, PubMed, and IEEE as databases, relevant research literatures on the application of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound from the establishment of the databases to December 2024 were retrieved as the research objects, and CiteSpace was used for visual analysis. Results After retrieval and screening, a total of 14 Chinese-language references and 88 foreign-language references were ultimately included. The number of literatures published at home and abroad on the application of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound is relatively small, and the publishing trends are both tending to be flat. There is cooperation among relevant researchers and institutions, but the degree of close cooperation is low. Keywords with high frequencies of occurrence include deep learning, machine learning, plaque segmentation, stroke, convolutional neural network, carotid plaque characterization, etc. Conclusion The research hotspots of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound at home and abroad mainly focus on the application of deep learning in identifying carotid plaques in ultrasound images, AI - based plaque segmentation technology, and the relationship between AI - analyzed ultrasound characteristics of carotid plaques and the occurrence of stroke and cardiovascular diseases. Computer-aided diagnosis and classification algorithms will become the research trend of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound. Meanwhile, due to the limited research on the application of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound examination at present, its application value in clinical practice remains to be verified and improved. In the future, more researchers are needed to engage in research on the application of AI in carotid plaque ultrasound examination. -
