The deep learning model segments epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) for each slice, shown in purple (a). The combined three-dimensional volume is used to quantify EAT volume (b). The patient was a 70-year-old woman with body mass index of 21.5 kg/m2, but EAT volume was elevated at 209 mL. The patient died 425 days after the scan.
