This paper presents a new registration algorithm, called Temporal Diffeomorphic Free Form
Deformation (TDFFD), and its application to motion and strain quantification from a …

Abstract'Multimodality'imaging—the side-by-side interpretation of data obtained from various
noninvasive imaging techniques, such as echocardiography, radionuclide techniques …

The loss of cardiac pump function accounts for a significant increase in both mortality and
morbidity in Western society, where there is currently a one in four lifetime risk, and costs …

Objectives: This study sought to test the feasibility of a purpose-built, integrated software
platform to process, analyze, and overlay cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) data in real …

Left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony is an important parameter to select heart failure
patients who are candidates for CRT. The integration of this parameter together with extent …

Background: This study was designed to assess the clinical impact and cost-benefit of
cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR). In the face of current health care cost …

MRI Predictors of Reverse Remodeling After CRT Introduction Response rate after cardiac
resynchronization therapy (CRT) remains suboptimal. We sought to identify pre‐and …

Purpose Electrocardiogram (ECG)‐gated cine MRI provides highly accurate functional
assessment of the heart. Nevertheless, reliable ECG signals are not always available due to …

Cardiac resynchronisation therapy (CRT), by retiming the failing heart, improves symptoms,
reduces hospitalisations and improves survival in patients with left ventricular dysfunction …

Contractile dyssynchrony due to intraventricular conduction delay diminishes systolic
function and is a major independent risk factor for worsening heart failure. Cardiac …
