In this paper, we present a novel blind watermarking method with secret key by embedding ECG signals in medical images. The embedding is done when the original image is compressed using the embedded zero-tree wavelet (EZW) algorithm. The extraction process is performed at the decompression time of the watermarked image. Our algorithm has been tested on several CT and MRI images and the peak signal...
Potential inverse electrocardiography (PIE) is a method for reconstruction of epicardial potentials from measured body surface electrocardiograms and heart-torso geometry. The method of choice for computing epicardial potentials has been either the boundary element method (BEM) or the finite element method (FEM). These methods require time-consuming meshing of the heart and torso surfaces or the volume...
Vascular pulsation and cardiac motion compromise image quality in contrast enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (CE-MRA) in the thorax, resulting in blurring and ghosting artifacts. The use of ECG gating has been proposed in the past to mitigate these artifacts but previous methods suffered from increased scanner time because only a fraction of the cardiac cycle was used for image acquisition and...

This work presents the first steps towards the development and implementation of a novel 3D biomechanical-based method for assessing the viability of myocardial tissue, with particular interest for its application in myocardial infarction (MI) diagnosis. This assessment technique quantifies the myocardial contraction forces developed within the ventricular myofibrils in response to the electrophysiological...
