Valvular regurgitation represents an important cause of cardiovascular morbidity and
mortality. Imaging is pivotal in the evaluation of native valve regurgitation and …

The use of pediatric cardiothoracic CT for congenital heart disease (CHD) was traditionally
limited to the morphologic evaluation of the extracardiac thoracic vessels, lungs, and …

Methods We developed computational models of the physical processes encompassed by
the heart function (electrophysiology, electrical activation, force generation, mechanics …

Aims Mammalian models have been instrumental in investigating adult heart function and
human disease. However, electrophysiological differences with human hearts and high …

Valvular heart disease (VHD) is a significant clinical problem with associated high morbidity
and mortality. The prevalence in the United States is 2.5%, with over 20,000 VHD-related …

Assessment of cardiac structure and function principally relies on echocardiography for
initial diagnosis, but the role of cardiac computed tomography (CT) as a complementary …
