Artificial intelligence (AI) offers the potential to change many aspects of paediatric cardiac imaging. At present, there are only a few clinically validated examples of AI applications in this field. This review focuses on the use of AI in paediatri...
PURPOSE: Organ-at-risk contouring is still a bottleneck in radiotherapy, with many deep learning methods falling short of promised results when evaluated on clinical data. We investigate the accuracy and time-savings resulting from the use of an inte...
BACKGROUND: Echocardiography is the diagnostic modality for assessing cardiac systolic and diastolic function to diagnose and manage heart failure. However, manual interpretation of echocardiograms can be time consuming and subject to human error. Th...
Regional soft tissue mechanical strain offers crucial insights into tissue's mechanical function and vital indicators for different related disorders. Tagging magnetic resonance imaging (tMRI) has been the standard method for assessing the mechanical...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Left ventricular non-compaction (LVNC) is an uncommon cardiomyopathy characterised by a thick and spongy left ventricle wall caused by the high presence of trabeculae (hyper-trabeculation). Recently, the percentage of the tr...
PURPOSE: Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) is a vital diagnostic tool in the management of cardiovascular diseases. The advent of advanced CMR technologies combined with artificial intelligence (AI) has the potential to simplify imaging, reduce...
BACKGROUND: Assessment of regional myocardial function at native pixel-level resolution can play a crucial role in recognizing the early signs of the decline in regional myocardial function. Extensive data processing in existing techniques limits the...
As the importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in the clinical setting increases, the need for clinicians to understand AI is also increasing. This review focuses on the fundamental principles of AI and the current state of cardiovascular AI. Vari...
Digital health solutions, applications of artificial intelligence (AI) and new technologies, such as cardiac magnetic resonance imaging and cardiac human genetics are currently being validated in cardiac healthcare pathways. They show promising appro...
PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate deep learning-based autosegmentation of cardiac substructures from noncontrast planning computed tomography (CT) images in patients undergoing breast cancer radiotherapy and to investigate the algorithm sensitivity to...
