Detection of Quiescent Cardiac Phases in Echocardiography Data Using Nonlinear Filtering and Boundary Detection Techniques

We describe an algorithm to detect cardiac quiescence within a heartbeat using nonlinear filtering and boundary detection techniques in echocardiography images. The motivation for detection of these quiescent phases is to provide improved cardiac gating to obtain motion-artifact-free images of the h...
