Abstract

Accurate motion tracking of the left ventricle is critical in detecting wall motion abnormalities in the heart after an injury such as a myocardial infarction. We propose an unsupervised motion tracking framework with physiological constraints to learn dense displacement fields between sequential pairs of 2-D B-mode echocardiography images. Current deep-learning motion-tracking algorithms require…
