PURPOSE: Radiation dose to cardiac substructures is related to radiation-induced heart disease. However, substructures are not considered in radiation therapy planning (RTP) due to poor visualization on CT. Therefore, we developed a novel deep learni...

OBJECTIVES: Little is known about optimal deep learning (DL) approaches for point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) applications. We compared 6 popular DL architectures for POCUS cardiac image classification to determine whether an optimal DL architecture e...
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...
UNLABELLED: Non-contact vital sign monitoring enables the estimation of vital signs, such as heart rate, respiratory rate and oxygen saturation (SpO), by measuring subtle color changes on the skin surface using a video camera. For patients in a hospi...
Liver disease causes millions of deaths per year worldwide, and approximately half of these cases are due to cirrhosis, which is an advanced stage of liver fibrosis that can be accompanied by liver failure and portal hypertension. Early detection of ...
Background Cardiac MRI late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) scar volume is an important marker for outcome prediction in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM); however, its clinical application is hindered by a lack of measurement standardizat...
PURPOSE: Segmentation of the left ventricle (LV), right ventricle (RV) cavities and the myocardium (MYO) from cine cardiac magnetic resonance (MR) images is an important step for diagnosis and monitoring cardiac diseases. Spatial context information ...
PURPOSE: Cardiac image segmentation is a critical process for generating personalized models of the heart and for quantifying cardiac performance parameters. Fully automatic segmentation of the left ventricle (LV), the right ventricle (RV), and the m...
Although the zebrafish embryo is a powerful animal model of human heart failure, the methods routinely employed to monitor cardiac function produce rough approximations that are susceptible to bias and inaccuracies. We developed and validated a deep ...
