Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) tagging has been established as an essential
technique for measuring regional myocardial function. It allows quantification of local …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a highly advanced and sophisticated imaging
modality for cardiac motion tracking and analysis, capable of providing 3D analysis of global …

We propose a new spatio-temporal elastic registration algorithm for motion reconstruction
from a series of images. The specific application is to estimate displacement fields from two …

Purpose: Four‐dimensional computed tomography (4D CT) can provide patient‐specific
motion information for radiotherapy planning and delivery. Motion estimation in 4D CT is …

Tagged MRI provides a noninvasive way to assess the regional function of the heart. Clinical
use of myocardial strain measurements from tagged MRI requires identifying new normative …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the heart with magnetization tagging provides a
potentially useful new way to assess cardiac mechanical function, through revealing the …

We present a method for the analysis of heart motion from medical images. The algorithm
exploits monogenic signal theory, recently introduced as an N-dimensional generalization of …

Strong prior models are a prerequisite for reliable spatio-temporal cardiac image analysis.
While several cardiac models have been presented in the past, many of them are either too …

Accurate cardiac motion estimation from medical images such as ultrasound is important for
clinical evaluation. We present a novel regularisation layer for cardiac motion estimation that …

To date, established ultrasonic methods for myocardial regional deformation recovery are
based on the Doppler effect, which has inherent limitations restricting its accuracy and use …
