Cardiac deformation is a crucial biomarker for the evaluation of cardiac function. Current methods for estimating cardiac strain might underestimate local deformation due to through-plane motion and segmental averaging. Mesh-based mapping…
Tight-frame, a generalization of orthogonal wavelets, has been used successfully in various problems in image processing, including inpainting, impulse noise removal, super-resolution image restoration, etc. Segmentation is the process of…
Brain surface analysis is essential to neuroscience, however, the complex geometry of the brain cortex hinders computational methods for this task. The difficulty arises from a discrepancy between 3D imaging data, which is represented in…
Optical coherence tomography (OCT) can provide high-resolution cross-sectional images for analyzing superficial plaques in coronary arteries. Commonly, plaque characterization using intra-coronary OCT images is performed manually by expert…
Plaque assays remain the gold standard readout of virus infectivity; however, plaque counting from plate images is labor-intensive and prone to inter-operator variability. We present an end-to-end, computer-aided workflow for cytopathic…
We present a two dimensional model describing the elastic behaviour of the wall of a curved blood vessel. The wall has a laminate structure consisting of several anisotropic layers of varying thickness and is assumed to be much smaller in…
In this paper, we investigated a C-arm tomographic technique as a new three dimensional (3D) kidney imaging method for nephrolithiasis and kidney stone detection over view angle less than 180o. Our C-arm tomographic technique provides a…
Using catheter ablation to treat atrial fibrillation increasingly relies on intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) for an anatomical delineation of the left atrium and the pulmonary veins that enter the atrium. However, it is a challenge to…
Angiography imaging is a medical imaging technique that enhances the visibility of blood vessels within the body by using contrast agents. Angiographic images can effectively assist in the diagnosis of vascular diseases. However, contrast…
Purpose: Echocardiography is commonly used as a non-invasive imaging tool in clinical practice for the assessment of cardiac function. However, delineation of the left ventricle is challenging due to the inherent properties of ultrasound…
Automatic methods for measuring normalized regional brain volumes from MRI data are a key tool to help in the objective diagnostic and follow-up of many neurological diseases. To estimate such regional brain volumes, the intracranial cavity…
Importance: Coronary algorithm for cardiac sub structures and prospective real-time surveillance of cardiac dose exposure. Methods: Retro and prospective study to validate AI auto-segmentation. A 3D UNet was trained on 560 thoracic CT scans…
Targeted diagnosis and treatment plans for patients with coronary artery disease vary according to atherosclerotic plaque component. Coronary CT angiography (CCTA) is widely used for artery imaging and determining the stenosis degree.…
Vessel centerline extraction from 3D CT images is an important task because it reduces annotation effort to build a model that estimates a vessel structure. It is challenging to estimate natural vessel structures since conventional…
This is the technical report of the 9th place in the final result of PARSE2022 Challenge. We solve the segmentation problem of the pulmonary artery by using a two-stage method based on a 3D CNN network. The coarse model is used to locate…
Non-invasive vascular elastography is an emerging technique in vascular tissue imaging. During the past decades, several techniques have been suggested to estimate the tissue elasticity by measuring the displacement of the Carotid vessel…
Background and Objective: Pelvic floor disorders are prevalent diseases and patient care remains difficult as the dynamics of the pelvic floor remains poorly known. So far, only 2D dynamic observations of straining exercises at excretion…
In this paper, we propose an enhanced 3D myocardial strain estimation procedure, which combines complementary displacement information from multiple orientations of a single imaging modality (untagged CMR SSFP images). To estimate…
Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) models are emerging as tools for assisting in diagnostic assessment of cardiovascular disease. Recent advances in image segmentation has made subject-specific modelling of the cardiovascular system a…
Deep learning approaches may help radiologists in the early diagnosis and timely treatment of cerebrovascular diseases. Accurate cerebral vessel segmentation of Time-of-Flight Magnetic Resonance Angiographs (TOF-MRAs) is an essential step…
