• Abstract: Background: Artificial intelligence techniques have shown great potential in cardiology, especially in quantifying cardiac biventricular function, volume, mass, and ejection fraction (EF). However, its use in clinical practice is not straightforward due to its poor reproducibility with cases from daily practice, among other reasons. Objectives: To validate a new artificial intelligence tool in order to quantify the cardiac biventricular function (volume, mass, and EF). To analyze its robustness in the clinical area, and the computational times compared with conventional methods. Methods: A total of 189 patients were analyzed: 89 from a regional center and 100 from a public center. The method proposes two convolutional networks that include anatomical information of the heart to reduce classification errors. Results: A high concordance (Pearson coefficient) was observed between manual quantification and the proposed quantification of cardiac function (0.98, 0.92, 0.96 and 0.8 for volumes and biventricular EF) in about 5 seconds per study. Conclusions: This method quantifies biventricular function and volumes in seconds with an accuracy equivalent to that of a specialist.

• An Improved Approach for Cardiac MRI Segmentation based on 3D UNet Combined with Papillary Muscle Exclusion [0.0]
  It is crucial to develop robust algorithms for the precise segmentation of the heart structure during different phases. In this work, an improved 3D UNet model is introduced to segment the myocardium and LV, while excluding papillary muscles. For the practical testing of the proposed framework, a total of 8,400 cardiac MRI images were collected and analysed.

This study demonstrates that an automated neural network-based calculation of LVEF is comparable to expert clinicians performing frame-by-frame manual evaluation of cardiac systolic function.

  We propose a deep neural network that classifies the tissues from the phase and intensity data of complex OCT signals acquired at the needle tip. We show that with 10% of the training set, our proposed pretraining strategy helps the model achieve an F1 score of 0.84 whereas the model achieves an F1 score of 0.60 without it.

  In clinical applications, a cardiac volume signal is often of low quality, mainly because of the patient's deliberate movements or inevitable motions during clinical interventions. This study aims to develop a signal quality indexing method that assesses the influence of motion artifacts on transient cardiac volume signals. The proposed method can be utilized to provide immediate warnings so that clinicians can minimize confusion regarding patients' conditions.
