A bi-atrial statistical shape model for large-scale in silico studies of human atria: model development and application to ECG simulations [PDF]

open access: yesMedical Image Analysis, Volume 74, 2021, 2021
Large-scale electrophysiological simulations to obtain electrocardiograms (ECG) carry the potential to produce extensive datasets for training of machine learning classifiers to, e.g., discriminate between different cardiac pathologies. The adoption of simulations for these purposes is limited due to a lack of ready-to-use models covering atrial ...

Reduced-order models of wall shear stress patterns in the left atrial appendage from a data-augmented atrial database [PDF]

open access: yesAppl. Math. Model.(2024),130:713-727, 2023
Background: Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common sustained cardiac arrhythmia, affecting over 1% of the population. It is usually triggered by irregular electrical impulses that cause the atria to contract irregularly and ineffectively. It increases blood stasis and the risk of thrombus formation within the left atrial appendage (LAA) and ...

Patient-Specific Heart Model Towards Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yesICCPS 2021: Proceedings of the ACM/IEEE 12th International Conference on Cyber-Physical Systems, 2022
Atrial fibrillation is a heart rhythm disorder that affects tens of millions people worldwide. The most effective treatment is catheter ablation. This involves irreversible heating of abnormal cardiac tissue facilitated by electroanatomical mapping.

JAS-GAN: Generative Adversarial Network Based Joint Atrium and Scar Segmentations on Unbalanced Atrial Targets [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Automated and accurate segmentations of left atrium (LA) and atrial scars from late gadolinium-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE CMR) images are in high demand for quantifying atrial scars. The previous quantification of atrial scars relies on a two-phase segmentation for LA and atrial scars due to their large volume difference (unbalanced ...

Atrial Fibrillation Detection Using RR-Intervals for Application in Photoplethysmographs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Atrial Fibrillation is a common form of irregular heart rhythm that can be very dangerous. Our primary goal is to analyze Atrial Fibrillation data within ECGs to develop a model based only on RR-Intervals, or the length between heart-beats, to create a real time classification model for Atrial Fibrillation to be implemented in common heart-rate ...

The Impact of Standard Ablation Strategies for Atrial Fibrillation on Cardiovascular Performance in a Four-chamber Heart Model [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
Atrial fibrillation is one of the most frequent cardiac arrhythmias in the industrialized world and ablation therapy is the method of choice for many patients. However, ablation scars alter the electrophysiological activation and the mechanical behavior of the affected atria.

Multi-Task Learning for Left Atrial Segmentation on GE-MRI [PDF]

open access: yesStatistical Atlases and Computational Models of the Heart. Atrial Segmentation and LV Quantification Challenges, 9th International Workshop, STACOM 2018, pp.292-301, 2018
Segmentation of the left atrium (LA) is crucial for assessing its anatomy in both pre-operative atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation planning and post-operative follow-up studies. In this paper, we present a fully automated framework for left atrial segmentation in gadolinium-enhanced magnetic resonance images (GE-MRI) based on deep learning. We propose a

Cirurgia vídeo-assistida para a ablação da fibrilação atrial isolada por radiofrequência bipolar Cirugía videoasistida para ablación de fibrilación atrial aislada por radiofrecuencia bipolar Videothoracoscopy for isolated atrial fibrillation ablation through bipolar radiofrequency

open access: yesArquivos Brasileiros de Cardiologia, 2009
FUNDAMENTO: A prevalência da fibrilação atrial, os gastos com o sistema de saúde e a elevada morbidade e mortalidade associadas a ela, têm justificado a procura por novas abordagens terapêuticas. OBJETIVO: Avaliar a reprodutibilidade da técnica cirúrgica,

Fast characterization of inducible regions of atrial fibrillation models with multi-fidelity Gaussian process classification [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2021
Computational models of atrial fibrillation have successfully been used to predict optimal ablation sites. A critical step to assess the effect of an ablation pattern is to pace the model from different, potentially random, locations to determine whether arrhythmias can be induced in the atria.
