In recent years, several deep learning models have been proposed to accurately quantify and diagnose cardiac pathologies. These automated tools heavily rely on the accurate segmentation of cardiac structures in MRI images. However, segmentation of th...
To improve the quality of magnetic resonance (MR) image edge segmentation, some researchers applied additional edge labels to train the network to extract edge information and aggregate it with region information. They have made significant progress....

A potential relationship between T cell immunity and development of atrial fibrillation (AF) has been proposed. Historically in AF patients it has been reported that peripheral blood had elevated CD4+ T cells. However few studies have explored whethe...

Use of machine learning (ML) for automated annotation of heart structures from echocardiographic videos is an active research area, but understanding of comparative, generalizable performance among models is lacking. This study aimed to (1) assess th...
Semi-supervised learning provides great significance in left atrium (LA) segmentation model learning with insufficient labelled data. Generalising semi-supervised learning to cross-domain data is of high importance to further improve model robustness...

BACKGROUND: Low-dose computed tomography (LDCT) are performed routinely for lung cancer screening. However, a large amount of nonpulmonary data from these scans remains unassessed. We aimed to validate a deep learning model to automatically segment a...
BACKGROUND: Left atrial (LA) myopathy is common in patients with heart failure and preserved ejection fraction and leads to the development of atrial fibrillation (AF). We investigated whether the likelihood of LA remodeling, LA dysfunction, altered ...
Journal of cardiovascular magnetic resonance : official journal of the Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance
Nov 11, 2021
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence can assist in cardiac image interpretation. Here, we achieved a substantial reduction in time required to read a cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) study to estimate left atrial volume without compromising acc...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate left atrial shape differences on CT scans of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients with (AF+) versus without (AF-) post-ablation recurrence and whether these shape differences predict AF recurrence.
