Anatomically-Informed Deep Learning on Contrast-Enhanced Cardiac MRI for Scar Segmentation and Clinical Feature Extraction

Unmet NeedHeart disease is the leading cause of death worldwide with 30.3 million Americans diagnosed with heart disease in 2018, according to the CDC. The leading diagnostic method is to identify myocardial fibrosis (scarring), which is a leading indicator of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Current image segmentation involves cardiac magnetic resonance...

System and Method for Personalized Arrhythmia Risk Assessment by Simulating Arrhythmia Inducibility

Unmet NeedEach year over 300,000 people die of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the US alone. Implanted cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are considered the best defense against SCD. However, the processes for determining good candidates for ICDs remains vague and overly inclusive. Current tests that provide better pictures of a patient’s SCD risk are...
