The deformation of the lateral ventricle (LV) shape is widely studied to identify specific morphometric changes associated with diseases. Since LV enlargement is considered a relative change due to brain atrophy, local longitudinal LV…

Cardiovascular disease accounts for 1 in every 4 deaths in United States. Accurate estimation of structural and functional cardiac parameters is crucial for both diagnosis and disease management. In this work, we develop an ensemble…

Medical image segmentation is one of the important tasks of computer-aided diagnosis in medical image analysis. Since most medical images have the characteristics of blurred boundaries and uneven intensity distribution, through existing…

Myocardial Velocity Mapping Cardiac MR (MVM-CMR) can be used to measure global and regional myocardial velocities with proved reproducibility. Accurate left ventricle delineation is a prerequisite for robust and reproducible myocardial…

Automated segmentation of left ventricular cavity (LVC) in temporal cardiac image sequences (multiple time points) is a fundamental requirement for quantitative analysis of its structural and functional changes. Deep learning based methods…

In the United States, heart disease is the leading cause of death for both men and women, accounting for 610,000 deaths each year [1]. Physicians use Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) scans to take images of the heart in order to…

Predicting cardiac indices has long been a focal point in the medical imaging community. While various deep learning models have demonstrated success in quantifying cardiac indices, they remain susceptible to mild input perturbations, e.g.,…

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) images are widely used for cardiac diagnosis and ventricular assessment. Extracting specific landmarks like the right ventricular insertion points is of importance for spatial alignment and 3D modeling. The…

Accurate tracking of an anatomical landmark over time has been of high interests for disease assessment such as minimally invasive surgery and tumor radiation therapy. Ultrasound imaging is a promising modality benefiting from low-cost and…

Purpose: Automated C-arm positioning ensures timely treatment in patients requiring emergent interventions. When a conventional Deep Learning (DL) approach for C-arm control fails, clinicians must revert to manual operation, resulting in…

Lifting during manual material handling is a major cause of low-back pain (LBP). As an important risk factor that directly influences the risk of LBP, the Load vertical location (LVL) during lifting needs to be measured and controlled.…

Cardiovascular diseases are among the leading causes of death globally. Cardiac left ventricle (LV) quantification is known to be one of the most important tasks for the identification and diagnosis of such pathologies. In this paper, we…

Four-dimensional (4D) left ventricular myocardial velocity mapping (MVM) is a cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) technique that allows assessment of cardiac motion in three orthogonal directions. Accurate and reproducible delineation of the…
