Segmentation of cardiac fibrosis and scars is essential for clinical diagnosis and can provide
invaluable guidance for the treatment of cardiac diseases. Late Gadolinium enhancement …

Ventricular tachycardia (VT), which can lead to sudden cardiac death, occurs frequently in
patients with myocardial infarction. Catheter-based radio-frequency ablation of cardiac …

The limitations of standard fluoroscopy have led to the development of improved imaging
techniques to guide noncoronary cardiac interventions. Imaging tools that are used in the …

Background—Atrial fibrillation (AF) is associated with diffuse left atrial fibrosis and a
reduction in endocardial voltage. These changes are indicators of AF severity and appear to …

Background—Compared with fluoroscopy, the current imaging standard of care for guidance
of electrophysiology procedures, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides improved soft …

Background Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) T1 mapping is an emerging tool for
objective quantification of myocardial fibrosis. Objectives To (a) establish the feasibility of left …

Image Integration for Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation. Background: Several studies
have provided details of left atrial anatomy by means of the image integration techniques …

VT ablation in patients with MI. We present the methodology fundamentals based on cardiac
imaging and computational modeling, outlining important assumptions, followed by a review …

Purpose Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder and causes
considerable morbidity and mortality, resulting in a large public health burden that is …

Background: Characterizing myocardial conduction velocity (CV) in patients with ischemic
cardiomyopathy (ICM) and ventricular tachycardia (VT) is important for understanding the …
