Fast Tracking of the Left Ventricle Using Global Anatomical Affine Optical Flow and Local Recursive Block Matching
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Published in The MIDAS Journal
We present a novel method for segmentation and tracking of the left ventricle (LV) in 4D ultrasound sequences using a combination of automatic segmentation at the end-diastolic frame and tracking using both a global optical flow-based tracker and local block [...]

Transitively Consistent and Unbiased Multi-Image Registration using Numerically Stable Transformation Synchronisation
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Transitive consistency of pairwise transformations is a desirable property of groupwise image registration procedures. The transformation synchronisation method (Bernard et al., 2015) is able to retrieve transitively consistent pairwise transformations from [...]

Clinical Expert Delineation of 3D Left Ventricular Echocardiograms for the CETUS Segmentation Challenge
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Within the framework of the CETUS challenge, forty-five 3D echocardiographic datasets have been acquired and segmented independently by three clinical experts from different hospitals. The goal was to generate a well-established ground truth of validated [...]

Challenge on Endocardial Three-dimensional Ultrasound Segmentation (CETUS)
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Published in The MIDAS Journal
Real-time 3D echocardiography has already been shown to be an accurate tool for left ventricular (LV) volume assessment. However, LV border identification remains a challenging task, mainly because of the low contrast of the images combined with drop-out [...]
