Title
Improving Visual Detection of Wall Motion Abnormality with Echocardiographic Image Enhancing Methods.
Abstract
Analysis of wall motion abnormality using echocardiography is an established method for detecting myocardial ischemia. We describe a hybrid approach of enhancing 2D+T echo datasets with border detection and Eulerian motion magnification to improve the visual assessment of wall motion. We implemented a local phase-based approach using the monogenic signal and its derived features, either feature asymmetry (FA) or oriented feature symmetry (OFS), to detect boundaries of the heart structure. We enhanced the 2D+T datasets using either an intensity-based or phase-based Eulerian Motion Magnification (EMM) video processing technique, and identified among eight different types of enhancements the best performing method as OFS with an accuracy of 78% versus the original B-Mode with an accuracy of 71%.
