Soft-Matter Physics Provides New Insights on Myocardial Architecture: Automatic and Quantitative Identification of Topological Defects in the Trabecular Myocardium

This article is the third in our series dedicated to the analysis of cardiac myoarchitecture as a nematic chiral liquid crystal (NCLC). Previously, we introduced the concept of topological defects (disclinations) and focused on their visual identification inside the compact myocardium. Herein, we in...
