Left Ventricle Tracking in Isotopic Ventriculography Using Statistical Deformable Models
The left ventricle tracking in planar scintigraphic images is an important step to study the coronary state. However, it is not as simple as we thought, because of the bad quality of these images. The study of the related work showed that classic methods based on low level image characteristics failed to localize the ventricle. In this paper, we suggest using a method based on a priori knowledg...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com position of the drain across the heart (Figure 1). Bed side echocardiogram showed the drain traversing the left ventricle (Figure 2). Bubble study through the chest drain showed contrast bubbles inside the left ventricle confirming position of the drain and perforation of the left ventricle (Figure 3). The drain was kept in situ. She was taken to th...
متن کاملNoncompaction of the left ventricular myocardium diagnosed during ventriculography.
Corresponding Author: Mehmet Ali Elbey, MD; e-mail: [email protected] 565 Dear Editor, The noncompacted myocardium (NCM) is characterised prominent trabeculations and deep intertrabecular recesses due to interruption of the myocardial fiber compacting during embryogenesis. Major clinical features of NCM include heart failure, arrhytmias and thromboembolic events. A 40-year-old man with shor...
متن کاملIatrogenic Perforation of the Left Ventricle during Insertion of a Chest Drain
Chest draining is a common procedure for treating pleural effusion. Perforation of the heart is a rare often fatal complication of chest drain insertion. We report a case of a 76-year-old female patient suffering from congestive heart failure. At presentation, unilateral opacity of the left chest observed on a chest X-ray was interpreted as massive pleural effusion, so an attempt was made to dr...
