Left ventricular (LV) geometric patterns aid clinicians in the diagnosis and prognostication of various cardiomyopathies. The aim of this study is to assess the accuracy and reproducibility of LV dimensions and wall thickness using deep learning (DL)...
Native T1 mapping is a non-invasive technique used for early detection of diffused myocardial abnormalities, and it provides baseline tissue characterization. Post-contrast T1 mapping enhances tissue differentiation, enables extracellular volume (ECV...

Global longitudinal strain (GLS) is an echocardiographic measure to detect chemotherapy-related cardiovascular dysfunction. However, its limited availability and the needed expertise may restrict its generalization. Artificial intelligence (AI)-based...
BACKGROUND: Ventricular volumetry using a short-axis stack of two-dimensional (D) cine balanced steady-state free precession (bSSFP) sequences is crucial in any cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination. This task becomes particularly chal...
BACKGROUND: Methods to monitor cardiac functioning non-invasively can accelerate preclinical and clinical research into novel treatment options for heart failure. However, manual image analysis of cardiac substructures is resource-intensive and error...
Landmark detection is a crucial task in medical image analysis, with applications across various fields. However, current methods struggle to accurately locate landmarks in medical images with blurred tissue boundaries due to low image quality. In pa...
