Collectively known as congenital heart defects (CHDs), cardiac abnormalities at birth are the most common forms of neonatal defects. Being principally responsible for the heart‘s pumping power, ventricles are particularly affected by developmental ...

Segmentation of the left ventricle of the heart in 3-D+t MRI data using an optimized nonrigid temporal model [PDF]
Modern medical imaging modalities provide large amounts of information in both the spatial and temporal domains and the incorporation of this information in a coherent algorithmic framework is a significant challenge.

Continuous addition of progenitors forms the cardiac ventricle in zebrafish
The vertebrate heart develops from several progenitor lineages. After early-differentiating first heart field (FHF) progenitors form the linear heart tube, late-differentiating second heart field (SHF) progenitors extend the atrium and ventricle, and ...

Transthoracic three-dimensional echocardiography for the assessment of straddling tricuspid or mitral valves [PDF]
Background The advent of 3D echocardiography has provided a technique which, potentially, could afford significant additional information over conventional cross-sectional echocardiography in the assessment of patients with straddling atrioventricular ...

Nonaxisymmetric mathematical model of the cardiac left ventricle anatomy [PDF]
We describe a mathematical model of the shape and fibre direction field of the cardiac left ventricle. The ventricle is composed of surfaces which model myocardial sheets.

Building the Right Ventricle [PDF]
See related article, pages 1000–1007 Abnormal development of the arterial pole of the heart underlies a significant fraction of congenital heart defects. Critical steps in arterial pole development are formation of the myocardial outflow tract (or conotruncal region) and its subsequent division into separate left and right ventricular outlets ...

Semi-Supervised Segmentation of Multi-vendor and Multi-center Cardiac MRI using Histogram Matching [PDF]
Automatic segmentation of the heart cavity is an essential task for the diagnosis of cardiac diseases. In this paper, we propose a semi-supervised segmentation setup for leveraging unlabeled data to segment Left-ventricle, Right-ventricle, and Myocardium. We utilize an enhanced version of residual U-Net architecture on a large-scale cardiac MRI dataset.

Abstract Purpose Cardiac motion may degrade dose distribution during stereotactic arrhythmia radioablation using the CyberKnife system, a robotic radiosurgery system. This study evaluated the dose distribution changes using a self‐made cardiac dynamic platform that mimics cardiac motion. Methods The cardiac dynamic platform was operated with amplitudes
