Abstract :
Accurate and early detection of blood vessel block-ages is crucial for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases. This
work presents a deep learning-based approach for identifying stenosis in angiography images using the YOLO (You Only
Look Once) object detection algorithm integrated with a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) framework. The proposed
system is trained using a dataset of angiography images obtained from the Mendeley repository. The YOLO-CNN
model is designed to detect and classify blood vessel blockades by processing image inputs and predicting bounding boxes
around affected areas, along with their classification as “Stenosis” or “No Blockade.” A Django-based web application is
developed to facilitate user regis-tration, dataset upload, model training, and real-time prediction. The model achieves a
mean Average Precision (mAP) exceeding 90%, demonstrating robust performance in detecting various stages of vascular
blockages. This automated detection system not only highlights the blockade region with bounding boxes but also
calculates the blockage area, aiding medical professionals in evaluating the severity of the condition. The system ensures
efficient, accurate, and user-friendly diagnostics through its web interface and can be extended to support clinical decisionmaking processes.
