Automated Detection of Regional Wall Motion Abnormalities Based on a Statistical Model Applied to Multislice Short-Axis Cardiac MR Images
2009
IEEE Transactions on Medical Imaging
For each slice level (base, middle, and apex), 44 short-axis magnetic resonance images were selected from healthy volunteers to train a statistical model of normal myocardial contraction using independent ...
In this paper, a statistical shape analysis method for myocardial contraction is presented that was built to detect and locate regional wall motion abnormalities (RWMA). ...
CONCLUSION AND FUTURE WORK A statistical model-based method to automatically detect RWMA in cardiac MR short-axis views of the myocardium has been presented. ...

Noninvasive Evaluation of the Coronary Arteries With Multislice Computed Tomography in Hypertensive Patients
2004
Hypertension
From the MSCT images, the presence of significant coronary stenoses (Ն50% luminal narrowing) and regional wall motion abnormalities were evaluated and compared with invasive coronary angiography and 2- ...
Mean left ventricular ejection fraction was 46Ϯ14% (range, 16% to 64%). The agreement for assessing regional wall motion was 91% (kappa statistic, 0.81). ...
An experienced observer blinded to all other data evaluated the presence of regional wall motion abnormalities visually on the short-axis slices (displayed in cine-loop format) using a previously described ...

Tagged magnetic resonance imaging of the heart: a survey
2005
Medical Image Analysis
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart with magnetization tagging provides a potentially useful new way to assess cardiac mechanical function, through revealing the local motion of otherwise indistinguishable ...
In this paper, we review some of the progress that has been made in developing such methods for tagged cardiac MRI, as well as some of the ways these methods have been applied to the study of cardiac function ...
Acknowledgements Dimitris Metaxas and a series of several students and programmers have contributed significantly to the development of tagged MRI methods in our laboratory. ...

Computational cardiac atlases: from patient to population and back
2009
Experimental Physiology
These methods facilitate statistical analysis of regional heart shape and wall motion characteristics across population groups, via the application of parametric mathematical modelling tools. ...
Efficient and robust statistical representations of cardiac morphology and morphodynamics can thereby be obtained, enabling quantitative analysis of images based on such representations. ...
White arrows in the end-systole images show corresponding regional areas of wall motion abnormality with the automated detection. ...

Automated border detection in three-dimensional echocardiography: principles and promises
2010
European Journal of Echocardiography
Several automated border detection approaches for three-dimensional echocardiography have been developed in recent years, allowing quantification of a range of clinically important parameters. ...
In this review, the background and principles of these approaches and the different classes of methods are described from a practical perspective, as well as the research trends to achieve a robust method ...
If applied to cardiac images, statistical models of the cardiac motion may be used as a constraint instead. 45 Since optical flow allows a seamless integration of scaling and shearing, the method can ...

Left ventricular function and perfusion from gated SPECT perfusion images: an integrated method
1999
Journal of Nuclear Medicine
This method is a logical extension of the results of a standard perfusion quantification technique; thus, it allows integration of perfusion and functional information. ...
A new technique for computing left ventricular function, including left ventricular volumes, mass and ejection fraction, has been developed. ...
On short-axis MR slices, myocardial thickness ranged from 10.2 ±.5 mm at the chordal level of the posterior wall to 10.4 ±1.8 mm at the papillary muscle level of the septal wall. Also, Byrd et al. ...
