Contributed Talk

Veno-venous extracorporeal membrane oxygenation (VV-ECMO) is a life-support therapy used for patients with severe respiratory failure, including those affected by COVID-19. In this therapy, gas exchange is partially or fully supported by an extracorporeal circuit, thereby substituting impaired lung function. Despite its clinical effectiveness, the presence of non-physiological flow conditions...

15. Impact of Body Mass Index on Power Distribution in High-Power RF Ablation for Atrial Fibrillation: Insights from Virtual Patients

Background:
High-power radiofrequency ablation (HP-RFA) is a minimally invasive technique for treating atrial fibrillation (AF); pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) serves as the cornerstone of this treatment. Variations in patient characteristics, such as body mass index (BMI), can influence the effectiveness and safety of PVI procedures. Obesity is a growing concern in the population, and...

45. From 2D+t Cine MRI to 3D Ventricular Models: A pipeline for Segmentation, Registration, and Shape Modeling

Contributed Talk

Effective segmentation and registration of 2D+t cardiac cine magnetic resonance images (cMRI) is crucial for accurate and fast 3D cardiac model construction, forming the basis for individual hearts in cardiac digital twins. While 2D cMRI scans often have higher temporal resolution and quality than 3D MRI, they frequently suffer from spatial misalignment due to patient movement and irregular...
