摘要: A NON-RIGID REGISTRATION METHOD FOR ANALYZING MYOCARDIAL WALL MOTION CARDIAC CT IMAGES Elizabeth B. Philps, B.S. Marquette University, 2010 Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) has a high percentage of nonresponders. Successfully locating the optimal location for CRT lead placement on priori images can increase efficiency in procedural preparation and execution could potentially rate responders. Registration been used past to assess motion medical images. Specifically, one method non-rigid registration utilized left ventricular MR cardiac As imaging is often performed as part treatment planning fast accessible means imaging, extending this assessing provide another reproducible contractility assessment. This thesis investigates use evaluate myocardium multi-phase multi-slice computed tomography (MSCT) evaluation mechanical contraction ventricle.
