Impact of training data composition on the generalizability of convolutional neural network aortic cross-section segmentation in four-dimensional magnetic resonance flow imaging.

Journal of cardiovascular magnetic resonance : official journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
BACKGROUND: Four-dimensional cardiovascular magnetic resonance flow imaging (4D flow CMR) plays an important role in assessing cardiovascular diseases. However, the manual or semi-automatic segmentation of aortic vessel boundaries in 4D flow data int...

Image2Flow: A proof-of-concept hybrid image and graph convolutional neural network for rapid patient-specific pulmonary artery segmentation and CFD flow field calculation from 3D cardiac MRI data.

PLoS computational biology
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) can be used for non-invasive evaluation of hemodynamics. However, its routine use is limited by labor-intensive manual segmentation, CFD mesh creation, and time-consuming simulation. This study aims to train a deep ...

Physics-informed neural networks for parameter estimation in blood flow models.

Computers in biology and medicine
BACKGROUND: Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) have emerged as a powerful tool for solving inverse problems, especially in cases where no complete information about the system is known and scatter measurements are available. This is especially ...

Tricuspid valve flow measurement using a deep learning framework for automated valve-tracking 2D phase contrast.

Magnetic resonance in medicine
PURPOSE: Tricuspid valve flow velocities are challenging to measure with cardiovascular MR, as the rapidly moving valvular plane prohibits direct flow evaluation, but they are vitally important to diastolic function evaluation. We developed an automa...

Diastolic function assessment with four-dimensional flow cardiovascular magnetic resonance using automatic deep learning E/A ratio analysis.

Journal of cardiovascular magnetic resonance : official journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
BACKGROUND: Diastolic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction is a powerful contributor to the symptoms and prognosis of patients with heart failure. In patients with depressed LV systolic function, the E/A ratio, the ratio between the peak early (E) and t...

Automated mitral inflow Doppler peak velocity measurement using deep learning.

Computers in biology and medicine
Doppler echocardiography is a widely utilised non-invasive imaging modality for assessing the functionality of heart valves, including the mitral valve. Manual assessments of Doppler traces by clinicians introduce variability, prompting the need for ...

Artificial intelligence-based speckle featurization and localization for ultrasound speckle tracking velocimetry.

Ultrasonics
Deep learning-based super-resolution ultrasound (DL-SRU) framework has been successful in improving spatial resolution and measuring the velocity field information of a blood flows by localizing and tracking speckle signals of red blood cells (RBCs) ...

Deep learning based automated left ventricle segmentation and flow quantification in 4D flow cardiac MRI.

Journal of cardiovascular magnetic resonance : official journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
BACKGROUND: 4D flow MRI enables assessment of cardiac function and intra-cardiac blood flow dynamics from a single acquisition. However, due to the poor contrast between the chambers and surrounding tissue, quantitative analysis relies on the segment...

HDL: Hybrid Deep Learning for the Synthesis of Myocardial Velocity Maps in Digital Twins for Cardiac Analysis.

IEEE journal of biomedical and health informatics
Synthetic digital twins based on medical data accelerate the acquisition, labelling and decision making procedure in digital healthcare. A core part of digital healthcare twins is model-based data synthesis, which permits the generation of realistic ...

Coupling synthetic and real-world data for a deep learning-based segmentation process of 4D flow MRI.

Computer methods and programs in biomedicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Phase contrast magnetic resonance imaging (4D flow MRI) is an imaging technique able to provide blood velocity in vivo and morphological information. This capability has been used to study mainly the hemodynamics of large ve...
