The field of medical imaging analysis is moving towards more accurate and efficient methods for analyzing complex biomedical data. Recent developments have focused on improving the analysis of cardiac motion, abdominal aortic aneurysm wall strain, and intracranial pressure grading. Notably, innovative approaches such as implicit neural representations and spatiotemporal graph neural processes have shown promise in reconstructing and extrapolating cardiac trajectories, as well as detecting diseases like atrial fibrillation. Additionally, fully automatic frameworks for ICP grading have demonstrated reliable non-invasive approaches for clinical evaluation.
Noteworthy papers include: The paper on implicit neural representations of intramyocardial motion and strain, which achieved the best tracking accuracy and lowest combined error in global circumferential and radial strain. The paper on a fully automatic framework for intracranial pressure grading, which established a reliable non-invasive approach for clinical ICP evaluation. The paper on spatiotemporal graph neural process for reconstruction, extrapolation, and classification of cardiac trajectories, which introduced a flexible approach for analyzing cardiac motion and achieved state-of-the-art results on the ACDC classification task.
