This paper proposes an ultrasound video interpretation algorithm that enables novel classes or instances to be added over time, without significantly compromising prediction abilities on prior representations. The motivating application is diagnostic...
We proposed a novel efficient method for 3D left ventricle (LV) segmentation on echocardiography, which is important for cardiac disease diagnosis. The proposed method effectively overcame the 3D echocardiography's challenges: high dimensional data, ...
In fetal cardiology, imaging (especially echocardiography) has demonstrated to help in the diagnosis and monitoring of fetuses with a compromised cardiovascular system potentially associated with several fetal conditions. Different ultrasound approac...

Fetal echocardiography (FE) is a widely used medical examination for early diagnosis of congenital heart disease (CHD). The apical four-chamber view (A4C) is an important view among early FE images. Accurate segmentation of crucial anatomical structu...
Uncertainty of labels in clinical data resulting from intra-observer variability can have direct impact on the reliability of assessments made by deep neural networks. In this paper, we propose a method for modelling such uncertainty in the context o...

Segmentation of the Left ventricle (LV) is a crucial step for quantitative measurements such as area, volume, and ejection fraction. However, the automatic LV segmentation in 2D echocardiographic images is a challenging task due to ill-defined border...
BACKGROUND: A deep learning algorithm to detect low ejection fraction (EF) using routine 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) has recently been developed and validated. The algorithm was incorporated into the electronic health record (EHR) to automaticall...
We investigated clinical significance of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) in heart failure. This study enrolled 32 heart failure patients and 28 control subjects. Total cfDNA levels were not different between groups (P = 0.343). Bisulfite-digital polymerase cha...

In heart failure, invasive angiography is often employed to differentiate ischaemic from non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy. We aim to examine the predictive value of echocardiographic strain features alone and in combination with other features to differ...
