Medis Suite MR – Research Applications

Hemodynamic Forces

Heart function is about creating and sustaining blood motion. This is achieved through a sequence of contraction-relaxation in the myocardial muscle which creates a pressure gradient across the ventricle also denoted as hemodynamic forces (HDF), which allows blood flow.  HDF can enable clinicians to detect mechanical abnormalities earlier compared with conventional ejection fraction and strain analysis, and possibly predict the development of cardiac remodeling.

Benefits

A new add-on module for the analysis of Intra-Ventricular Pressure Gradients (IVPGs), a global property describing LV function
Estimated using routine cine acquisitions
Modality independent parameter, applicable for Ultrasound, MR and CT series.
Based on a robust feature tracking algorithm developed by KOL in the field
Re-usage of the contours from strain analysis allows for efficient processing and optimal results
The HDF module is seamlessly integrated into Medis Suite and QStrain workflow

Features

Analysis of long axis cines
Valve area using caliper Measurements
Quantification of HDF:
HDF Strength
HDF Impulse
Hemodynamic work
Visualization of HDF:
Polar Graph
HDF curve for one cardiac style
Analysis of specific intervals of a cardiac style
Easy exportation of the research results in various formats (PDF, XML and MS-Excel)
