Interactive-Automatic Segmentation and Modelling of the Mitral Valve [PDF]
, 2019 Mitral valve regurgitation is the most common valvular disease, affecting 10% of the population over 75 years old. Left untreated, patients with mitral valve regurgitation can suffer declining cardiac health until cardiac failure and death. Mitral valve repair is generally preferred over valve replacement. However, there is a direct correlation between

Computational fluid dynamics modelling of left valvular heart diseases during atrial fibrillation [PDF]
PeerJ, 4: e2240, 2016, 2016 Although atrial fibrillation (AF), a common arrhythmia, frequently presents in patients with underlying valvular disease, its hemodynamic contributions are not fully understood. The present work aimed to computationally study how physical conditions imposed by pathologic valvular anatomy act on AF hemodynamics.

Heatmap-based 2D Landmark Detection with a Varying Number of Landmarks [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 Mitral valve repair is a surgery to restore the function of the mitral valve. To achieve this, a prosthetic ring is sewed onto the mitral annulus. Analyzing the sutures, which are punctured through the annulus for ring implantation, can be useful in surgical skill assessment, for quantitative surgery and for positioning a virtual prosthetic ring model ...

A Computational Framework for Atrioventricular Valve Modeling using Open-Source Software [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 Atrioventricular valve regurgitation is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality in patients with acquired and congenital cardiac valve disease. Image-derived computational modeling of atrioventricular valves has advanced substantially over the last decade and holds particular promise to inform valve repair in small and heterogeneous populations ...
