Predictive Cardiac Motion Modeling and Correction with PLSR Predictive cardiac motion modeling and correction based on partial least squares regression to extract intrinsic relationships between three-dimensional (3D) cardiac deformation due to respiration and multiple one-dimensional real-time measurable surface intensity traces at chest or abdomen. - see IEEE TMI 23(10), 2004
Myocardial Strain and Stain Rate Analysis Virtual tagging with MR myocardial velocity mapping - IEEE TMI Strain rate analysis with constrained myocardial velocity restoration Review of methods for measuring intrinsic myocardial mechanics - JMRI Atheroma Imaging and Analysis The use of selective volume excitation for high resolution vessel wall imaging (JMRI, 2003;17(5):572-80). 3D morphological modeling of the arterial wall Feature reduction based atheroma classification Volume Selective Coronary Imaging A locally focused MR imaging method for 3-D zonal echo-planar coronary angiography using volume selective RF excitation. Spatially variable resolution was used for delineating coronary arteries and reducing the effect of residual signals caused by the imperfect excitation profile of the RF pulse. The use of variable resolution enabled the derivation of basis functions having variable spatial characteristics pertain to regional object details and a significantly smaller number of phase encoded signal measurements was needed for image reconstruction.
