Shifted Windows Transformers for Medical Image Quality Assessment [PDF]
To maintain a standard in a medical imaging study, images should have necessary image quality for potential diagnostic use. Although CNN-based approaches are used to assess the image quality, their performance can still be improved in terms of accuracy.

Left Ventricular Assist Device Outflow Graft Obstruction: A Case Series.
Dysfunction of different components within continuous-flow (CF) left ventricular assist device (LVAD) systems may cause adverse cardiovascular and end-organ sequelae. Outflow graft obstruction is a recognized type of LVAD component dysfunction.

Noninvasive diagnosis of left ventricular outflow tract obstruction caused by a porcine mitral prosthesis [PDF]
A patient developed shortness of breath 8 years after mitral valve replacement with a porcine prosthesis. Doppler echocardiography revealed left ventricular outflow tract obstruction created by a protruding ...

A Mass Causing Right Ventricular Outflow Obstruction - A Dreadful Complication [PDF]
The most common cardiac tumour in the pediatric age group is rhabdomyoma. These are usually located in the ventricles, either in the ventricular septum or free wall.

Explainable Image Quality Assessment for Medical Imaging [PDF]
Medical image quality assessment is an important aspect of image acquisition, as poor-quality images may lead to misdiagnosis. Manual labelling of image quality is a tedious task for population studies and can lead to misleading results. While much research has been done on automated analysis of image quality to address this issue, relatively little ...

Transient dynamic left ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Dynamic left ventricular outflow (LVOT) obstruction has been classically described in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM). The hypertrophy of the basal septum and systolic anterior motion of the mitral valve leaflet (SAM) cause dynamic LVOT ...

Subpulmonary membrane: A rare cause of right ventricular outflow tract obstruction
Subpulmonary membrane is a rare cause of right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) obstruction, and only a few case reports exist with or without associated ventricular septal defect. We report a series of three cases with subpulmonary membrane causing RVOT

Multi-epoch Sub-arcsecond [Fe II] Spectroimaging of the DG Tau Outflows with NIFS. II. On the Nature of the Bipolar Outflow Asymmetry [PDF]
The origin of bipolar outflow asymmetry in young stellar objects (YSOs) remains poorly understood. It may be due to an intrinsically asymmetric outflow launch mechanism, or it may be caused by the effects of the ambient medium surrounding the YSO. Answering this question is an important step in understanding outflow launching.

Higher ventricular rate during atrial fibrillation relates to increased cerebral hypoperfusions and hypertensive events [PDF]
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with cognitive impairment/dementia, independently of clinical cerebrovascular events (stroke/TIA). One of the plausible mechanisms is the occurrence of AF-induced transient critical hemodynamic events; however, it is presently unknown, if ventricular response rate during AF may impact on cerebral hemodynamics.

Feline Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy: A Spontaneous Large Animal Model of Human HCM. [PDF]
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a common disease in pet cats, affecting 10-15% of the pet cat population. The similarity to human HCM, the rapid progression of disease, and the defined and readily determined endpoints of feline HCM make it an ...
