Is High Temporal Resolution Achievable for Paediatric Cardiac Acquisitions during Several Heart Beats? Illustration with Cardiac Phase Contrast Cine-MRI. [PDF]
During paediatric cardiac Cine-MRI, data acquired during cycles of different lengths must be combined. Most of the time, Feinstein's model is used to project multiple cardiac cycles of variable lengths into a mean cycle.To assess the effect of Feinstein ...

Validity of tissue Doppler markers in the assessment of pulmonary hypertension
The accuracy of tissue Doppler parameters of right ventricular function including Isovolumic relaxation time (IVRT) and Isovolumic contraction time (IVCT) have not been validated sufficiently in pulmonary hypertensive patients (pts).

Myocardial Motion Analysis for Determination of Tei-Index of Human Heart
The Tei index, an important indicator of heart function, lacks a direct method to compute because it is difficult to directly evaluate the isovolumic contraction time (ICT) and isovolumic relaxation time (IRT) from which the Tei index can be obtained. In

Will the real ventricular architecture please stand up? [PDF]
Ventricular twisting, essential for cardiac function, is attributed to the contraction of myocardial helical fibers. The exact relationship between ventricular anatomy and function remains to be determined, but one commonly used explanatory model is the ...
