Artificial intelligence (AI) in radiology has improved diagnostic performance and shortened reading times of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients' studies. ⋯ The AI-calculated CT severity score and total opacity percentage showed good diagnostic accuracy for mortality and met MV criteria. The proposed prognostic models using biochemical variables and imaging data measured by AI on chest CT showed good risk classification in our population of hospitalized COVID-19 patients.

As an increasing age-related eye disease, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is becoming a common cause of irreversible visual loss in elder population. The mechanism of AMD remains uncertain and covers a complex risk factors. Choroidal vascularity index (CVI) is a sensitive parameter obtained by enhanced depth imaging of optical coherence tomography which allows the choroid in more detail and accurate assessment in the pathogenesis of AMD. The objective of this current study is to evaluate choroidal structural alternations measured by CVI in AMD. ⋯ INPLASY.
