Interpretable Deep Models for Cardiac Resynchronisation Therapy Response Prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Advances in deep learning (DL) have resulted in impressive accuracy in some medical image classification tasks, but often deep models lack interpretability. The ability of these models to explain their decisions is important for fostering clinical trust and facilitating clinical translation.

Adverse impact of univentricular pacing for the patient with functional single ventricle: successful conversion to cardiac resynchronization therapy

open access: yesSurgical Case Reports, 2020
Background In a Fontan candidate, univentricular pacing may cause delay in interventricular conduction, which induces asynchronous contraction. Cardiac resynchronization therapy is expected to be an effective mode of therapy in such a case.

Joint Deep Learning for Improved Myocardial Scar Detection from Cardiac MRI [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Automated identification of myocardial scar from late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance images (LGE-CMR) is limited by image noise and artifacts such as those related to motion and partial volume effect. This paper presents a novel joint deep learning (JDL) framework that improves such tasks by utilizing simultaneously learned ...

Cardiac resynchronization treatment in a patient with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy after heart transplantation

open access: yesTürk Kardiyoloji Derneği Arşivi, 2013
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is characterized by heterogeneous clinical expression. Cardiac transplantation continues to be the gold standard for the treatment of end-stage cardiac diseases refractory to medical therapy.

Multitask Learning for Improved Late Mechanical Activation Detection of Heart from Cine DENSE MRI [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
The selection of an optimal pacing site, which is ideally scar-free and late activated, is critical to the response of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Despite the success of current approaches formulating the detection of such late mechanical activation (LMA) regions as a problem of activation time regression, their accuracy remains ...

Clinical implications of left atrial changes after optimization of medical therapy in patients with heart failure

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Heart Failure, Volume 24, Issue 11, Page 2131-2139, November 2022., 2022
Among patients with new‐onset or worsening heart failure (HF) undergoing optimization of HF medical therapy, dose up‐titration of angiotensin‐converting enzyme inhibitor/angiotensin receptor blocker (ACEi/ARB) therapy was associated with lower likelihood of left atrial adverse remodelling (LAAR).
