In this article we propose a cardiac motion estimation technique that uses non-rigid registration to compute the dense cardiac displacement field from 2D ultrasound sequences. Our method employs a semi-local deformation model which provides controlled smoo ...
FGF-2 has been implicated in the cardiac response to hypertrophic stimuli. Angiotensin II (Ang II) contributes to maintain elevated blood pressure in hypertensive individuals and exerts direct trophic effects on cardiac cells. However, the role of FGF-2 in ...
The electronic miniaturization and the computer evolution (microprocessor, transputer) have contributed to the use of electric drives in a lot of applications. Because of its flexibility, the electric drive becomes an essential element to work out new conc ...
AIM: Non-invasive measurements of arterial diameter and wall thickness are critical in characterizing the onset and development of vascular disease. A precise dynamic method was proposed and tested for this purpose. DESIGN: A non-invasive method of measuri ...
It is known that extracardiac factors (nervous, humoral, and hemodynamic) participate in the power-law behavior of heart-rate variability. To assess whether intrinsic properties of cardiac tissue might also be involved, beat- rate variability was studied i ...
Wearable devices are an unobtrusive, cost-effective means of continuous ambulatory monitoring of chronic cardiovascular diseases. However, on these resource-constrained systems, electrocardiogram (ECG) processing algorithms must consume minimal power an ...
It is generally accepted that the left ventricle (LV) hypertrophies (LVH) to normalize systolic wall stress (sigma(s)) in chronic pressure overload. However, LV filling pressure (P(v)) may be elevated as well, supporting the alternative hypothesis of end-d ...
Background. We describe a set of image processing algorithms and mathematical models that can be advantageously used in schemes for the segmentation of thallium-201-single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) images and for computation of left ventr ...
