The heart's contraction is caused by electrical excitation which propagates through the heart muscle. It was recently shown that the electrical excitation can be computed from the contractile motion of a simulated piece of heart muscle…
Non-invasive assessment of the electrical activation pattern can significantly contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of cardiac arrhythmias, due to faster and safer diagnosis, improved surgical planning and easier follow-up. One…
This work addresses the inverse problem of electrocardiography from a new perspective, by combining electrical and mechanical measurements. Our strategy relies on the defini-tion of a model of the electromechanical contraction which is…
Cardiac arrhythmogenesis is governed by complex electromechanical interactions that are not directly observable in vivo, motivating the development of non-invasive computational approaches for reconstructing three-dimensional activation…
Scroll wave chaos is thought to underlie life-threatening ventricular fibrillation. However, currently there is no direct way to measure action potential wave patterns transmurally throughout the thick ventricular heart muscle.…
Deep neural networks have shown great potential in image reconstruction problems in Euclidean space. However, many reconstruction problems involve imaging physics that are dependent on the underlying non-Euclidean geometry. In this paper,…

Electroanatomical mapping, a keystone diagnostic tool in cardiac electrophysiology studies, can provide high-density maps of the local electric properties of the tissue. It is therefore tempting to use such data to better individualize…
Alterations in the geometry and function of the heart define well-established causes of cardiovascular disease. However, current approaches to the diagnosis of cardiovascular diseases often rely on subjective human assessment as well as…
