From your first appointment, your cardiac care experience will be personalized, integrated and exceptional. Your care team will provide advanced testing, diagnosis and treatment for your cardiac …
Visualizing disease-induced scarring and fibrosis in the heart on cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging with contrast enhancement (LGE) is paramount in characterizing disease progression and quantifying pathophysiological substrates of arrhythmias...

Spin-lattice relaxation time ($T_1$) is an important biomarker in cardiac parametric mapping for characterizing myocardial tissue and diagnosing cardiomyopathies. Conventional Modified Look-Locker Inversion Recovery (MOLLI) acquires 11 breath-hold ba...
Accurate, continuous out-of-hospital electrocardiogram (ECG) parameter measurement is vital for real-time cardiac health monitoring and telemedicine. On-device computation of single-lead ECG parameters enables timely assessment without reliance on ce...
Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) has been widely used in clinical practice for the medical diagnosis of cardiac diseases. However, the long acquisition time hinders its development in real-time applications. Here, we propose a novel self-cons...
Background: Increased pericardial adipose tissue (PAT) is associated with many types of cardiovascular disease (CVD). Although cardiac magnetic resonance images (CMRI) are often acquired in patients with CVD, there are currently no tools to automatic...
In recent years, a variety of deep learning networks for cardiac MRI (CMR) segmentation have been developed and analyzed. However, nearly all of them are focused on cine CMR under breathold. In this work, accuracy of deep learning methods is assessed...
The effect of heart geometry and anisotropy on cardiac re-entry dynamics and self-termination is studied here in anatomically realistic computer simulations of human foetal heart. 20 weeks of gestational age human foetal heart isotropic and anisotrop...
Currently every day in the USA 1000 people die of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) outside of hospitals or ambulances - before emergency medical help arrives - in the streets, workplaces, schools and homes of our cities, adults and children. Brain death c...
Spiral waves are ubiquitous spatiotemporal patterns that occur in various excitable systems. In cardiac tissue, the formation of these spiral waves is associated with life-threatening arrhythmias, and, therefore, it is important to study the dynamics...
Fibroblast-myocyte coupling can modulate electrical-wave dynamics in cardiac tissue. In diseased hearts, the distribution of fibroblasts is heterogeneous, so there can be gradients in the fibroblast density (henceforth we call this GFD) especially fr...
Gulati M, et al. 2021 AHA/ACC/ASE/CHEST/SAEM/SCCT/SCMR guideline for the evaluation and diagnosis of chest pain: A report of the American College of Cardiology/American Heart Association …
The process of manually searching for relevant instances in, and extracting information from, clinical databases underpin a multitude of clinical tasks. Such tasks include disease diagnosis, clinical trial recruitment, and continuing medical educatio...
First thing, in simple terms cardio is a exercise we give to our cardiac (heart) muscles. Basically when you do cardio you make you heart pump blood twice or more (according to how intense the cardio ...
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging is a standard imaging modality for assessing cardiovascular diseases (CVDs), the leading cause of death globally. CMR enables accurate quantification of the cardiac chamber volume, ejection fraction and...
of skeletal muscle, cardiac muscle, and smooth muscle such as their actions, structure, size, and location. There are three types of muscle tissue in the
Prince is gone. The first pic is from last night. He was my first ever dog. I dropped him off at the vet at 8:30am for a dental clean and at 1:30pm he passed away from cardiac arrest after receivin...
(Note: I'm not in the US so American laws don't apply here). My (30/F) mother (63/F) passed away a couple of months ago following a sudden & unexpected cardiac arrest. She owned a very nice home ...
