Systemic amyloidosis involves the deposition of misfolded proteins in organs/tissues, leading to progressive organ dysfunction and failure. Congo red is the gold-standard chemical stain for visualizing amyloid deposits in tissue, showing birefringenc...
BACKGROUND: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) is a standard technique for diagnosing myocardial infarction (MI), which, however, poses risks due to gadolinium contrast usage. Techniques enabling MI assessment based on...

BACKGROUND: Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) chemical shift encoding (CSE) enables myocardial fat imaging. We sought to develop a deep learning network (fast chemical shift encoding [FastCSE]) to accelerate CSE.
To develop a deep learning-based model capable of segmenting the left ventricular (LV) myocardium on native T1 maps from cardiac MRI in both long-axis and short-axis orientations. Models were trained on native myocardial T1 maps from 50 healthy volun...
Native T1 mapping is a non-invasive technique used for early detection of diffused myocardial abnormalities, and it provides baseline tissue characterization. Post-contrast T1 mapping enhances tissue differentiation, enables extracellular volume (ECV...
We previously developed a computer-assisted image analysis algorithm to detect and quantify the microscopic features of rodent progressive cardiomyopathy (PCM) in rat heart histologic sections and validated the results with a panel of five veterinary...
BACKGROUND: Analysis of structures contained in tissue samples and the relevant contextual information is of utmost importance to histopathologists during diagnosis. Cardiac biopsies require in-depth analysis of the relationships between biological s...
BACKGROUND: Evaluation of standard echocardiographic examination with artificial intelligence may help in the diagnosis of myocardial viability and function recovery after acute coronary syndrome.

BACKGROUND: Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) of the myocardium has significant diagnostic and prognostic implications, with even small areas of enhancement being important. Distinguishing between definitely normal and definitely abnormal LGE images ...
BACKGROUND: A deep learning (DL) model that automatically detects cardiac pathologies on cardiac MRI may help streamline the diagnostic workflow. To develop a DL model to detect cardiac pathologies on cardiac MRI T1-mapping and late gadolinium phase ...
