Cardiovascular resonance (CMR) imaging is a standard modality for assessing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the leading cause of death globally. CMR enables accurate quantification cardiac chamber volume, ejection fraction and myocardial mass, providing information diagnosis monitoring CVDs. However, years, clinicians have been relying on manual approaches image analysis, which time consuming prone to subjective errors. It major clinical challenge automatically derive quantitative clinically...
This study sought to develop a fully automated framework for cardiac function analysis from magnetic resonance (CMR), including comprehensive quality control (QC) algorithms detect erroneous output.Analysis of cine CMR imaging using deep learning (DL) could automate ventricular assessment. However, variable image quality, variability in phenotypes disease, and unavoidable weaknesses training DL currently prevent their use clinical practice.The consists pre-analysis QC, followed by algorithm...
Patient-specific models of blood flow in the coronary arteries have entered clinical practice worldwide to aid diagnosis and management heart disease. This technology leverages modern AI-based image segmentation methods extract geometry from noninvasive computed tomography volumetric imaging, computational physiology define boundary conditions fluid dynamic techniques compute artery pressure. The described herein been used fractional reserve (FFR) arteries, namely ratio pressure a reference...
Deep learning approaches such as convolutional neural nets have consistently outperformed previous methods on challenging tasks dense, semantic segmentation. However, the various proposed networks perform differently, with behaviour largely influenced by architectural choices and training settings. This paper explores Ensembles of Multiple Models Architectures (EMMA) for robust performance through aggregation predictions from a wide range methods. The approach reduces influence...
Measurement of head biometrics from fetal ultrasonography images is key importance in monitoring the healthy development fetuses. However, accurate measurement relevant anatomical structures subject to large inter-observer variability clinic. To address this issue, an automated method utilizing Fully Convolutional Networks (FCN) proposed determine measurements circumference (HC) and biparietal diameter (BPD). An FCN was trained on approximately 2000 2D ultrasound with annotations provided by...
Deep learning models for semantic segmentation are able to learn powerful representations pixel-wise predictions, but sensitive noise at test time and may lead implausible topologies. Image registration on the other hand warp known topologies target images as a means of segmentation, typically require large amounts training data, have not widely been benchmarked against models. We propose Atlas Image-and-Spatial Transformer Network (Atlas-ISTN), framework that jointly learns 2D 3D image...
Detecting acoustic shadows in ultrasound images is important many clinical and engineering applications. Real-time feedback of can guide sonographers to a standardized diagnostic viewing plane with minimal artifacts provide additional information for other automatic image analysis algorithms. However, automatically detecting shadow regions using learning-based algorithms challenging because pixel-wise ground truth annotation subjective time consuming. In this paper, we propose weakly...
Patient-specific models of blood flow are being used clinically to diagnose and plan treatment for coronary artery disease. A remaining challenge is bridging scales from in arteries the micro-circulation supplying myocardium. Previously proposed descriptive rather than predictive have not been applied human data. The goal here develop a multiscale patient-specific model enabling simulation large myocardial tissue. Patient vasculatures segmented computed tomography angiography data extended...
