Measurement of Cardiac Deformations from MRI: Physical and Mathematical Models
describes the latest imaging and imag analysis techniques that have been developed at …

Modern rapid magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques have led to widespread use of
the modality in cardiac imaging. Despite this progress, many MR studies suffer from image …

In this paper, we present a novel technique based on nonrigid image registration for
myocardial motion estimation using both untagged and 3-D tagged MR images. The novel …

Methods for the noninvasive measurement of three-dimensional myocardial motion with MRI
have recently been developed using presaturation tagging and velocity-encoded phase …

▪ Abstract Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides a noninvasive way to evaluate the
biomechanical dynamics of the heart. MRI can provide spatially registered tomographic …

RATIONALE AND OBJECTIVES. The accuracy of myocardial motion measurements,
computed from cine-phase contrast (cine-PC) magnetic resonance (MR) velocity data, was …

In this paper we present a benchmarking framework for the validation of cardiac motion
analysis algorithms. The reported methods are the response to an open challenge that was …
