Development of models for predicting Torsade de Pointes cardiac arrhythmias using perceptron neural networks.

BMC bioinformatics
BACKGROUND: Blockage of some ion channels and in particular, the hERG (human Ether-a'-go-go-Related Gene) cardiac potassium channel delays cardiac repolarization and can induce arrhythmia. In some cases it leads to a potentially life-threatening arrh...

Sacubitril/Valsartan in an Elderly Patient with Heart Failure: A Case Report.

Cardiology
Sacubitril/valsartan has recently been approved for the treatment of heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Given its recent introduction in the armamentarium for the treatment of heart failure (HF), "field-practice" evidence is required to de...

Estimation of the Volume of the Left Ventricle From MRI Images Using Deep Neural Networks.

IEEE transactions on cybernetics
Segmenting human left ventricle (LV) in magnetic resonance imaging images and calculating its volume are important for diagnosing cardiac diseases. The latter task became the topic of the Second Annual Data Science Bowl organized by Kaggle. The datas...

Deep learning analysis of the myocardium in coronary CT angiography for identification of patients with functionally significant coronary artery stenosis.

Medical image analysis
In patients with coronary artery stenoses of intermediate severity, the functional significance needs to be determined. Fractional flow reserve (FFR) measurement, performed during invasive coronary angiography (ICA), is most often used in clinical pr...

Multi-Views Fusion CNN for Left Ventricular Volumes Estimation on Cardiac MR Images.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Left ventricular (LV) volume estimation is a critical procedure for cardiac disease diagnosis. The objective of this paper is to address a direct LV volume prediction task.

Knowledge-based reconstruction for measurement of right ventricular volumes on cardiovascular magnetic resonance images in a mixed population.

Congenital heart disease
OBJECTIVE: Follow-up of right ventricular performance is important for patients with congenital heart disease. Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is optimal for this purpose. However, observer-dependency of manual analysis of right ventricular volume...

Convolutional neural network regression for short-axis left ventricle segmentation in cardiac cine MR sequences.

Medical image analysis
Automated left ventricular (LV) segmentation is crucial for efficient quantification of cardiac function and morphology to aid subsequent management of cardiac pathologies. In this paper, we parameterize the complete (all short axis slices and phases...

Segmentation of Fetal Left Ventricle in Echocardiographic Sequences Based on Dynamic Convolutional Neural Networks.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
Segmentation of fetal left ventricle (LV) in echocardiographic sequences is important for further quantitative analysis of fetal cardiac function. However, image gross inhomogeneities and fetal random movements make the segmentation a challenging pro...

A novel algorithm for ventricular arrhythmia classification using a fuzzy logic approach.

Australasian physical & engineering sciences in medicine
In the present study, it has been shown that an unnecessary implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) shock is often delivered to patients with an ambiguous ECG rhythm in the overlap zone between ventricular tachycardia (VT) and ventricular fibril...
