Up to one-third of patients selected by current guidelines do not respond to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT), the aim of this study was to find out novel analytical approaches to improve pre-implantation CRT response prediction. Among 31 pre-...
OBJECTIVES: This study investigated whether a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN) could provide improved detection of regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMAs) and differentiate among groups of coronary infarction territories from conventional ...
The accurate quantification of left ventricular (LV) deformation/strain shows significant promise for quantitatively assessing cardiac function for use in diagnosis and therapy planning. However, accurate estimation of the displacement of myocardial ...
BACKGROUND: No data exist on comparisons of efficacy, safety, and recurrence risk factors of paroxysmal and persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation using robotic magnetic navigation system (MNS), respectively.

OBJECTIVES: We sought to validate a deep learning algorithm designed to predict an ejection fraction (EF) less than or equal to 35% based on the 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) in a large prospective cohort.
The advent of cardiovascular diseases as a disease of mass catastrophy, in recent years is alarming. It is expected to spread as an epidemic by 2030. Present methods of determining the health of one's heart include doppler based echocardiogram, MDCT ...
Delineation of the cardiac structures from 2D echocardiographic images is a common clinical task to establish a diagnosis. Over the past decades, the automation of this task has been the subject of intense research. In this paper, we evaluate how far...

BACKGROUND: The authors used cluster analysis of data from cardiovascular domains associated with exercise intolerance to help define prognostic phenotypes of patients with heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).
