For myocardial infarction (MI) patients, delayed enhancement (DE) and T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) can play significant roles in diagnosis, prognosis and therapeutic strategy evaluation. However, the non-rigid registrat...
Electrocardiography (ECG) sensors play a vital role in the Internet of Medical Things, and these sensors help in monitoring the electrical activity of the heart. ECG signal analysis can improve human life in many ways, from diagnosing diseases among ...
BACKGROUND: Low adherence to recommended treatments is a multifactorial problem for patients in rehabilitation after myocardial infarction (MI). In a nationwide trial of internet-delivered cognitive behavior therapy (iCBT) for the high-risk subgroup ...

This work presents a novel analysis methodology that utilises high-resolution, multi-dimensional information to better classify regions of the left ventricle after myocardial infarction. Specifically, the focus is to determine degree of infarction in...
Lipid profile changes in heart muscle have been previously linked to cardiac ischemia and myocardial infarction, but the spatial distribution of lipids and metabolites in ischemic heart remains to be fully investigated. We performed desorption electr...
