In this work an adaptation of the Cross Industry Standard Process for Data Mining (CRISP-DM) methodology, in the context of digital medical image processing is proposed. Specifically, synthetic images reported in the ...

We propose an estimation scheme for local fiber bundle direction in the left ventricle directly from gray values of arbitrarily spaced cardiac diffusion weighted images (DWI). The approach is based on a parametric and ...

The World Health Organization indicates the top cause of death is heart disease. These diseases can be detected using several imaging modalities, especially cardiac computed tomography (CT), whose images have imperfections ...

The diagnosis of heart failure usually includes a global functional assessment, such as ejection fraction measured by magnetic resonance imaging. However, these metrics have low discriminate power to distinguish different ...

Physiological signals are commonly the result of complex interactions between systems and organs, these interactions lead to signals that exhibit a non-stationary behaviour. For cardiac signals, non-stationary heart rate ...

Purpose: This paper presents CardIAc, an open-source application designed as an alternative to commercial software for left ventricle myocardial strain quantification in short-axis cardiac magnetic resonance images. The ...

Cardiovascular diseases are the largest cause of death in the world, and imaging studies have great relevance for the diagnosis and prognosis of these diseases. Thus, it is important that radiology professionals know how ...

The anisotropic di usion lters have become in the fundamental bases to address the medical images noise problem. The main attributes of these lters are: the noise removal e ectiveness and the preservation of the ...

The morphological expression of the coronary sinus is characterized by its great variability, especially with regard to length, caliber, drainage territories and frequency of its tributaries. We assessed the variants in ...
