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 …

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

Myocardial elastography (ME), a radio frequency (RF)-based speckle tracking technique
with one-dimensional (1-D) cross correlation and novel recorrelation methods in a 2-D …

The popularity of magnetic resonance (MR) imaging in medicine is no mystery: it is non-
invasive, it produces high quality structural and functional image data, and it is very versatile …

Myocardial elastography (ME), a radio-frequency (RF) based speckle tracking technique,
was employed in order to image the entire two-dimensional (2D) transmural deformation …

This work presents the first implementation of myocardial tagging with refocused steady‐
state free precession (SSFP) and magnetization preparation. The combination of myocardial …

During the past eight years since the publication of the third edition—a three-volume set—of
The Biomedical Engineering Handbook, the eld of biomedical engineering has continued to …

Based on research and clinical trials, this book details the latest research in magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) tagging technology related to heart mechanics. It covers clinical …

Myocardial contractile function is, with perfusion, one of the main affected factors in ischemic
heart diseases. In this paper, we propose an original framework based on functional data …

In this paper, we extend a previous work by J. Park and propose a uniform framework to
reconstruct left ventricle (LV) geometry/motion from tagged MR images. In our work, the LV is …
