We hypothesized that deep learning-based post hoc denoising could improve the quality of cardiac CT for the 3D volume-rendered (VR) imaging of mitral valve (MV) prolapse. We aimed to evaluate the quality of denoised 3D VR images for visualizing MV pr...
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) function has a well-established prognostic role in patients with severe mitral regurgitation (MR) undergoing transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) and is typically assessed using echocardiography-measured tricusp...

PURPOSE: The search for heart components in robotic transthoracic echocardiography is a time-consuming process. This paper proposes an optimized robotic navigation system for heart components using deep reinforcement learning to achieve an efficient ...
BACKGROUND: Considering the high prevalence of mitral regurgitation (MR) and the highly subjective, variable MR severity reporting, an automated tool that could screen patients for clinically significant MR (≥ moderate) would streamline the diagnosti...
BACKGROUND: Diagnosis of mitral regurgitation (MR) requires careful evaluation by echocardiography with Doppler imaging. This study presents the development and validation of a fully automated deep learning pipeline for identifying apical 4-chamber v...
INTRODUCTION: Transcatheter mitral valve repair offers a minimally invasive treatment option for patients at high risk for traditional open repair. We sought to develop dynamic machine-learning risk prediction models for in-hospital mortality after t...
OBJECTIVE: The proximal isovelocity surface area (PISA) method is a well-established approach for mitral regurgitation (MR) quantification. However, it exhibits high inter-observer variability and inaccuracies in cases of non-hemispherical flow conve...
BACKGROUND: Artificial intelligence, particularly deep learning (DL), has immense potential to improve the interpretation of transthoracic echocardiography (TTE). Mitral regurgitation (MR) is the most common valvular heart disease and presents unique...
BACKGROUND: To develop a novel complexity evaluation system for mitral valve repair based on preoperative echocardiographic data and multiple machine learning algorithms.
