Cardiovascular disease is the leading global cause of death, underscoring the need for accurate assessment of myocardial injury. The current gold standard, bright-blood late gadolinium enhanced MRI, suffers from poor contrast at the blood-scar interf...
Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) imaging plays a crucial role in assessing myocardial scar tissues, aiding in the diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases. However, accurately classifying scar tissue severity...
Conventional approaches to material decomposition in spectral CT face challenges related to precise algorithm calibration across imaged conditions and low signal quality caused by variable object size and reduced dose. In this proof-of-principle stud...
PURPOSE: Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) images are crucial elements of CMR protocols for evaluating myocardial infarct (MI) severity and size. However, these images rely on signal intensity changes and manual inversion time (TI) settings, leading ...
OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the added value of the late gadolinium enhancement (LGE)-scar radiomics features in predicting reverse left ventricular remodeling (r-LVR) in ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) patients using machine learning (...
BACKGROUND: Late Gadolinium-enhancement in cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (LGE-CMR) is the gold standard for assessing myocardial infarction (MI) size. Texture-based probability mapping (TPM) is a novel machine learning-based analysis of LGE imag...
BACKGROUND: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) typically represents myocardial fibrosis and may lead to fatal ventricular arrhythmias. However, CMR is resource-intensive and some...
OBJECTIVES: In the context of growing safety concerns regarding the use of gadolinium-based contrast agents in contrast-enhanced MRI, there is a need for dose reduction without compromising diagnostic accuracy. A deep learning (DL) method is proposed...
BACKGROUND: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a standard technique for diagnosing myocardial infarction (MI), which, however, poses risks due to gadolinium contrast usage. Techniques enabling MI assessment based on...
