Non-uniform polar tagging
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background CMR tagging in polar patterns is desirable because of its close compatibility to the annular geometry and motion of the left ventricle in short axis view. This circular symmetry does not exist in some pathological cases neither in the normal long axis view. An oval-shaped pattern is more suitable for assessment of the deformation in these conditions. Herein, we present the non-uniform polar tagging method and also present the preliminary images [1].

Polar HARP for the polar CMR tagging
Background The polar coordinate system adapts best to the morphology of the heart. The recently developed sequences that allow the CMR Tagging in the circular and radial directions facilitate the calculation and presentation of the myocardium mechanics. Development of the corresponding processing methods is required to further enhance the utilization of these sequences. Here we suggest a proces...
متن کاملBuckling Analysis of Polar Orthotropic Circular and Annular Plates of Uniform and Linearly Varying Thickness with Different Edge Conditions
This paper investigates symmetrical buckling of orthotropic circular and annular plates of continuous variable thickness. Uniform compression loading is applied at the plate outer boundary. Thickness varies linearly along radial direction. Inner edge is free, while outer edge has different boundary conditions: clamped, simply and elastically restraint against rotation. The optimized Ritz method...
متن کاملNURBS , Spline Surfaces and Blossoming in Two - dimensions
In this lecture we generalize the polar form and blossoming and introduce NURBS(non-uniform rational B-spline), then we extend the discussion to 2D about surfaces. 1 NURBS NURBS is an industry standard tool for the representation and design of geometry. It is the non-uniform and rational extension of B-splines. We will introduce these properties one by one using blossoming. A cubic polar form i...
متن کاملNon-uniform PSC occurrence within the Arctic polar vortex
A multi-year dataset of lidar measurements of polar stratospheric clouds (PSCs) from two sites in the Arctic (Sodankylä, 67°N, 27°E, and Ny-Ålesund, 79°N, 12°E) has been analyzed with respect to the existence temperature of different PSC types. Due to the location of the measurement sites relative to the polar vortex, their observations are most of the time representative of vortex edge and vor...
متن کاملMyocardial tagging in the polar coordinate system; early clinical experience
Background Quantitative MR myocardial strain analysis is typically performed using rectilinear or Cartesian grid tagging, and regional contractility is visually assessed by the deformation of the grid1. However, it is difficult to visually isolate circumferential and radial components of displacement and strain from parallel straight lines on short axis images. This study evaluates the potentia...
