Dynamic registration of multiple-view-US and MRI for the characterization of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy |

The relationship between strain and fibrosis for patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) remains unclear. This work aims to fuse (i) myocardial fibrosis assessed from late-galodinium-enhanced MRI (LGE) sequence and, (ii) myocardial strain from multiple-view 2D speckle tracking echocardiography (STE). A spatio-temporal alignment is performed between segmented data extracted from cine-MRI short-axis-view and STE apical two- and four-chamber views. Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) and Fourier descriptors are used to handle the non-linear relationship between the cardiac phases of input sequences and the different levels of details provided by the two modalities. An expert evaluated the results visually, leading to a percentage of exploitable cardiac segments of 87%. Finally, MRI-LGE image was superimposed to the corresponding mid-diastolic STE contours to perform the combined tissue and strain analysis. Results on ten patients suggest that myocardial fibrosis is associated with a decrease in longitudinal strain and therefore that STE can be used to detect myocardial fibrosis. |
