Computational blood flow modelling: errors associated with reconstructing finite element models from magnetic resonance images.
Construction of computational blood flow models from magnetic resonance (MR) scans of real arteries is a powerful tool for studying arterial hemodynamics. In this report we experimentally determine a lower bound for errors associated with such an approach, and present techniques for minimizing such errors. A known, simple three-dimensional geometry (cylindrical tube) was imaged using a commerci...
متن کاملAutomated Segmentation of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Images
Introduction Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been shown to be an accurate and precise technique to assess cardiac volumes and function in a noninvasive manner and is generally considered to be the current goldstandard for cardiac imaging [1]. Measurement of ventricular volumes, muscle mass and function is based on determination of the leftventricular endocardial and epicardial borders. Sin...
متن کاملRelaxation Time Estimation from Complex Magnetic Resonance Images
Magnetic Resonance (MR) imaging techniques are used to measure biophysical properties of tissues. As clinical diagnoses are mainly based on the evaluation of contrast in MR images, relaxation times assume a fundamental role providing a major source of contrast. Moreover, they can give useful information in cancer diagnostic. In this paper we present a statistical technique to estimate relaxatio...
متن کاملMotion Estimation of Magnetic Resonance Cardiac Images Using the Wigner–Ville and Hough Transforms
Myocardial motion analysis and quantification is of utmost importance for analyzing contractile heart abnormalities and it can be a symptom of a coronary artery disease. A fundamental problem in processing sequences of images is the computation of the optical flow, which is an approximation of the real image motion. This paper presents a new algorithm for optical flow estimation based on a spat...
متن کاملMotion estimation of tagged cardiac magnetic resonance images using variational techniques
This work presents a new method for motion estimation of tagged cardiac magnetic resonance sequences based on variational techniques. The variational method has been improved by adding a new term in the optical flow equation that incorporates tracking points with high stability of phase. Results were obtained through simulated and real data, and were validated by manual tracking and with respec...
