There has been considerable interest in the MR physics-based simulation of a database of virtual cardiac MR images for the development of deep-learning analysis networks. However, the employment of such a database is limited or shows…
This paper introduces a paradigm of smartphone application based disease diagnostics that may completely revolutionise the way healthcare services are being provided. Although primarily aimed to assist the problems in rendering the…
Automatic segmentation of anatomical structures is critical for many medical applications. However, the results are not always clinically acceptable and require tedious manual revision. Here, we present a novel concept called artificial…
X-ray coronary angiography (XCA) is used to assess coronary artery disease and provides valuable information on lesion morphology and severity. However, XCA images are 2D and therefore limit visualisation of the vessel. 3D reconstruction of…
We propose a fully automatic system to reconstruct and visualize 3D blood vessels in Augmented Reality (AR) system from stereo X-ray images with bones and body fat. Currently, typical 3D imaging technologies are expensive and carrying the…
The aim of this study is to use image-processing techniques developed in the field of astrophysics as inspiration for a novel approach to the three-dimensional (3D) imaging of periprocedural medical data, with the intention of providing…
Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has transformed treatment for tachyarrhythmias and has become first-line therapy for some tachycardias. The precise localization of the arrhythmogenic site and the positioning of the RF catheter over…
With advances in Building Information Modeling (BIM), Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technologies have many potential applications in the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry. However, the AEC…
Phacoemulsification cataract surgery (PCS) is a routine procedure conducted using a surgical microscope, heavily reliant on the skill of the ophthalmologist. While existing PCS guidance systems extract valuable information from surgical…
Interventional C-arm imaging is crucial to percutaneous orthopedic procedures as it enables the surgeon to monitor the progress of surgery on the anatomy level. Minimally invasive interventions require repeated acquisition of X-ray images…
Augmented Reality (AR) technologies hold immense potential for revolutionizing the way individuals with disabilities interact with the world. AR systems can provide real-time assistance and support by overlaying digital information over the…
Modern medicine demands innovations in medical education, particularly in the learning of human anatomy, traditionally taught through textbooks, dissections, and lectures. Virtual Reality (VR) has emerged as a promising tool to address the…
Cardiotoxicity induced by cancer treatment has become a major clinical concern, affecting the long-term survival and quality of life of cancer patients. Effective clinical decision-making, including the detection of cancer treatment-induced…
Augmented Reality (AR) technology creates new immersive experiences in entertainment, games, education, retail, and social media. AR content is often primarily visual and it is challenging to enable access to it non-visually due to the mix…
Automated extraction of quantitative parameters from Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Images (CMRI) is crucial for the management of patients with myocardial infarct. This work proposes a post-processing procedure to jointly analyze Cine and…
Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) cardiac MRI (CMR) is the clinical standard for diagnosis of myocardial scar. 3D isotropic LGE CMR provides improved coverage and resolution compared to 2D imaging. However, image acceleration is required…
Pediatric heart diseases present a broad spectrum of congenital and acquired diseases. More complex congenital malformations require a differentiated and multimodal decision-making process, usually including echocardiography as a central…
Augmented Reality (AR) is becoming mobile. Mobile devices have many constraints but also rich new features that traditional desktop computers do not have. There are several survey papers on AR, but none is dedicated to Mobile Augmented…
Computational models of cardiac structure and function are increasingly central to the development of subject-specific cardiac digital twins, enabling improved characterization of contractile dysfunction, pathological remodeling, and…
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is a relatively rare disease that affects patients at birth and results in extremely heterogeneous anatomical and functional defects. 12-lead ECG signal is routinely collected in CHD patients because it…
