Quantitative analysis of left ventricular deformation can provide valuable information about the extent of disease as well as the efficacy of treatment. In this work, we develop an adaptive multi-level compactly supported radial basis approach for deformation analysis in 3D+time echocardiography. Our method combines displacement information from shape tracking of myocardial boundaries (derived from...
In 4-D echocardiography (4DE), displacement estimates obtained solely from multi-dimensional speckle tracking can exhibit large variances and peak hopping, making it challenging to accurately calculate myocardial strains. 3-D phase-sensitive speckle tracking can produce sensitive estimates along the axial direction, but typically provides poorer estimates in orthogonal directions and at tissue boundaries...
Quantitative analysis of left ventricular function provides valuable information about overall heart health. Echocardiography is non-invasive method for imaging the heart that provides high temporal resolution allowing for imaging cardiac motion. Shape tracking and speckle tracking are two methods that have previously been used to track cardiac deformation in ultrasound. These two methods provide...
Left ventricular (LV) deformation analysis can provide valuable information about cardiac function. Echocardiography is a non-invasive method for imaging the motion of the heart. Two methods that have been used for quantitative deformation analysis in echocardiography are shape tracking and speckle tracking. Shape tracking provides good displacement values on the boundaries of the myocardium, while...
