Detecting Heart Disease from Multi-View Ultrasound Images via Supervised Attention Multiple Instance Learning [PDF]
MLHC 2023, 2023 Aortic stenosis (AS) is a degenerative valve condition that causes substantial morbidity and mortality. This condition is under-diagnosed and under-treated. In clinical practice, AS is diagnosed with expert review of transthoracic echocardiography, which produces dozens of ultrasound images of the heart.

CardioXNet: A Novel Lightweight Deep Learning Framework for Cardiovascular Disease Classification Using Heart Sound Recordings [PDF]
, 2020 The alarmingly high mortality rate and increasing global prevalence of cardiovascular diseases signify the crucial need for early detection schemes. Phonocardiogram (PCG) signals have been historically applied in this domain owing to its simplicity and cost-effectiveness.

The Influence of the Aortic Root Geometry on Flow Characteristics of a Bileaflet Mechanical Heart Valve [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 Bileaflet mechanical heart valves have one of the most successful valve designs for more than 30 years. These valves are often used for aortic valve replacement, where the geometry of the aortic root sinuses may vary due to valvular disease and affect valve performance. Common geometrical sinus changes may be due to valve stenosis and insufficiency. In

Immersed boundary-finite element model of fluid-structure interaction in the aortic root [PDF]
, 2015 It has long been recognized that aortic root elasticity helps to ensure efficient aortic valve closure, but our understanding of the functional importance of the elasticity and geometry of the aortic root continues to evolve as increasingly detailed in vivo imaging data become available.

Assimilated LVEF: A Bayesian technique combining human intuition with machine measurement for sharper estimates of left ventricular ejection fraction and stronger association with outcomes [PDF]
arXiv, 2018 The cardiologist's main tool for measuring systolic heart failure is left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). Trained cardiologist's report both a visual and machine-guided measurement of LVEF, but only use this machine-guided measurement in analysis.

Advancing aortic stenosis assessment: validation of fluid-structure interaction models against 4D flow MRI data [PDF]
arXivSystematic in vivo validations of computational models of the aortic valve remain scarce, despite successful validation against in vitro data. Utilizing a combination of computed tomography and 4D flow magnetic resonance imaging data, we developed patient-specific fluid-structure interaction models of the aortic valve immersed in the aorta for five ...
