Tracking of myocardial walls and study of contractility and thickening
The study of cardiac muscle contractility is fundamental in the evaluation of cardiac function. We propose a continuous measure of contractility based on segment thickening in echocardiographic contrast B-mode time series. Thickness is computed with the symmetric nearest neighbour distance method fr...
