BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Automatic cardiac left ventricle (LV) quantification plays an important role in assessing cardiac function. Although many advanced methods have been put forward to quantify related LV parameters, automatic cardiac LV quantif...
BACKGROUND: Although analysis of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images provides accurate and reproducible measurements of left ventricular (LV) volumes, these measurements are usually not performed throughout the cardiac cycle because of lack of to...

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...
Medaka () and zebrafish () contribute substantially to our understanding of the genetic and molecular etiology of human cardiovascular diseases. In this context, the quantification of important cardiac functional parameters is fundamental. We have de...

Most patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM), the most common genetic cardiac disease, remain asymptomatic, but others may suffer from sudden cardiac death. A better identification of those patients at risk, together with a better understandi...
Accurate direct estimation of the left ventricle (LV) multitype indices from two-dimensional (2D) echocardiograms of paired apical views, i.e., paired apical four-chamber (A4C) and two-chamber (A2C), is of great significance to clinically evaluate ca...
Left ventricle (LV) segmentation plays an important role in the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases. The cardiac contractile function can be quantified by measuring the segmentation results of LVs. Fully convolutional networks (FCNs) have been prove...
Left ventricle (LV) segmentation in cardiac MRI is an essential procedure for quantitative diagnosis of various cardiovascular diseases. In this paper, we present a novel fully automatic left ventricle segmentation approach based on convolutional neu...
Accurate segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) from cine magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an important step in the reliable assessment of cardiac function in cardiovascular disease patients. Several deep learning convolutional neural network (CN...
