Key result
Automated left and right ventricular segmentation and motion estimation was developed using MRI-SPAMM data to potentially aid in evaluating ischemia and hypertrophy.
The study presents a novel automated method for segmenting and estimating the motion of the left and right ventricles using MRI-SPAMM data.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
May aid automated MRI evaluation of ischemia and hypertrophy; leaves open prospective clinical validation.
The study of the shape and motion of the heart is important because many heart diseases are thought to be strongly correlated to the shape and motion of the heart. Important examples of such heart diseases include ischemia and right ventricle (RV) hypertrophy. In this paper we present our automated LV/RV segmentation, shape and motion from MRI-SPAMM (spatial modulation of magnetization) data.
