Myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) has been proposed as a method to assess myocardial perfusion for the detection of coronary artery diseases in a non-invasive way. As a critical step of automatic MCE perfusion quantification, myocardium segm...
OBJECTIVE: T1 mapping provides valuable information regarding cardiomyopathies. Manual drawing is time consuming and prone to subjective errors. Therefore, this study aimed to test a DL algorithm for the automated measurement of native T1 and extrace...
PURPOSE: To introduce a model that describes the effects of rigid translation due to respiratory motion in displacement encoding with stimulated echoes (DENSE) and to use the model to develop a deep convolutional neural network to aid in first-order ...

AIMS: Myocardial fibrosis (MF) is a common pathological process in a wide range of cardiovascular diseases. Its quantity has diagnostic and prognostic relevance. We aimed to assess if the complementary use of an automated artificial intelligence soft...
OBJECTIVE: The image quality of myocardial contrast echocardiography (MCE) is critical for precise myocardial perfusion evaluation but challenging for echocardiographers. Differences in quality may lead to diagnostic heterogeneity. This study was aim...
OBJECTIVES: The analysis of myocardial deformation using feature tracking in cardiovascular MR allows for the assessment of global and segmental strain values. The aim of this study was to compare strain values derived from artificial intelligence (A...
RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES: Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging is crucial for diagnosing cardiovascular diseases, but lengthy postprocessing and manual segmentation can lead to observer bias. Deep learning (DL) has been proposed for automated cardiac s...
