Dedicated cardiac SPECT scanners with cadmium-zinc-telluride cameras have shown capabilities for shortened scan times or reduced radiation doses, as well as improved image quality. Since most dedicated scanners do not have integrated CT, image quanti...
BACKGROUND: Image segmentation is a common task in medical imaging e.g., for volumetry analysis in cardiac MRI. Artificial neural networks are used to automate this task with performance similar to manual operators. However, this performance is only ...
Light-field microscopy has emerged as a technique of choice for high-speed volumetric imaging of fast biological processes. However, artifacts, nonuniform resolution and a slow reconstruction speed have limited its full capabilities for in toto extra...

The estimation of multitype cardiac indices from cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography (CT) images attracts great attention because of its clinical potential for comprehensive function assessment. However, the most exiting ...
Heart angiography is a test in which the concerned medical specialist identifies the abnormality in heart vessels. This type of diagnosis takes a lot of time by the concerned physician. In our proposed method, we segmented the interested regions of h...

Echocardiography (echo) is a critical tool in diagnosing various cardiovascular diseases. Despite its diagnostic and prognostic value, interpretation and analysis of echo images are still widely performed manually by echocardiographers. A plethora of...
In computer-aided analysis of cardiac MRI data, segmentations of the left ventricle (LV) and myocardium are performed to quantify LV ejection fraction and LV mass, and they are performed after the identification of a short axis slice coverage, where ...
Non-rigid motion-corrected reconstruction has been proposed to account for the complex motion of the heart in free-breathing 3D coronary magnetic resonance angiography (CMRA). This reconstruction framework requires efficient and accurate estimation o...
The use of different cardiac imaging modalities such as MRI, CT or ultrasound enables the visualization and interpretation of altered morphological structures and function of the heart. In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in AI and...
Echocardiography is a relatively inexpensive and widely available technique that has a pivotal role in the assessment and management of patients with heart failure (HF). Advancements in cardiac ultrasound, especially the advent of myocardial deformat...
