Whole-body hemodynamics simulators, which model blood flow and pressure waveforms as functions of physiological parameters, are now essential tools for studying cardiovascular systems. However, solving the corresponding inverse problem of…
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia. It is associated with an increased risk of stroke, heart failure, and other cardiovascular complications, but can be clinically silent. Passive AF monitoring with…
Actions are more than just movements and trajectories: we cook to eat and we hold a cup to drink from it. A thorough understanding of videos requires going beyond appearance modeling and necessitates reasoning about the sequence of…
Cardiac motion estimation is critical to the assessment of cardiac function. Myocardium feature tracking (FT) can directly estimate cardiac motion from cine MRI, which requires no special scanning procedure. However, current deep…
Cardiac disease evaluation depends on multiple diagnostic modalities: electrocardiogram (ECG) to diagnose abnormal heart rhythms, and imaging modalities such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), Computed Tomography (CT) and echocardiography…
Warfarin is an effective preventative treatment for arterial and venous thromboembolism, but requires individualised dosing due to its narrow therapeutic range and high individual variation. Many machine learning techniques have been…
Recent Mamba-based architectures for video understanding demonstrate promising computational efficiency and competitive performance, yet struggle with overfitting issues that hinder their scalability. To overcome this challenge, we…
Cardiocirculatory mathematical models serve as valuable tools for investigating physiological and pathological conditions of the circulatory system. To investigate the clinical condition of an individual, cardiocirculatory models need to be…
Aims: Coronary microvascular dysfunction (CMVD) affects approximately 40%-60% of patients with ischemia and non-obstructive coronary arteries, yet diagnosis remains challenging due to reliance on invasive functional testing or subjective…
Electroanatomic mapping as routinely acquired in ablation therapy of ventricular tachycardia is the gold standard method to identify the arrhythmogenic substrate. To reduce the acquisition time and still provide maps with high spatial…

Electrocardiogram (ECG) classification is crucial for automated cardiac disease diagnosis, yet existing methods often struggle to capture local morphological details and long-range temporal dependencies simultaneously. To address these…
Incidental detection and quantification of coronary calcium in CT scans could lead to the early introduction of lifesaving clinical interventions. However, over-reporting could negatively affect patient wellbeing and unnecessarily burden…
Doppler echocardiography offers critical insights into cardiac function and phases by quantifying blood flow velocities and evaluating myocardial motion. However, previous methods for automating Doppler analysis, ranging from initial signal…
Metabolic (dysfunction) associated fatty liver disease (MAFLD) establishes new criteria for diagnosing fatty liver disease independent of alcohol consumption and concurrent viral hepatitis infection. However, the long-term outcome of MAFLD…
Perceptual video quality assessment models are either frame-based or video-based, i.e., they apply spatiotemporal filtering or motion estimation to capture temporal video distortions. Despite their good performance on video quality…
The exploitation of large-scale population data has the potential to improve healthcare by discovering and understanding patterns and trends within this data. To enable high throughput analysis of cardiac imaging data automatically, a…
Background: Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) planning requires advanced spatial visualization and consideration of coronary artery depth, calcification, and pericardial adhesions. Objective: To develop and evaluate a dynamic…
We report on a method that classifies heart beats according to a set of 13 classes, including cardiac arrhythmias. The method localises the QRS peak complex to define each heart beat and uses a neural network to infer the patterns…
