Regional Curvature Analysis in the Left Ventricle of the Heart using Hotelling T2 Metric
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper proposes a method for local deformation analysis of the heart's left ventricle (LV) which is of an utmost interest in characterizing the myocardium disease extent and severity. Our method is based on regional curvature variation calculation using the Hotelling T2 two samples difference metric. Our approach is validated on real data obtained from myocardial scintigraphy imaging technique. The curvature variation is calculated at stress and rest. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness and the validity of our approach.

متن کاملEvaluation of diastolic blood flow dynamic of the left ventricle in dogs with mitral valve regurgitation using vector flow mapping
Mitral valve regurgitation (MVR) is a common valvular disease in dogs. Hydrokinetic evaluation of the blood flow within the ventricles has become possible by vector flow mapping (VFM), which shows the blood flow within the ventricles in vector and vortex flows. Blood flow within the left ventricle of MVR dogs was compared at different stages of MVR and to that of normal dogs. 14 normal dogs and...
