Semantic Segmentation for Preoperative Planning in Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement
When preoperative planning for surgeries is conducted on the basis of medical images, artificial intelligence methods can support medical doctors during assessment. In this work, we consider medical guidelines for preoperative planning of the transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) and identify tasks, that may be supported via semantic segmentation models by making relevant anatomical structures measurable in computed tomography scans. We first derive fine-grained TAVR-relevant pseudo-labels from coarse-grained anatomical information, in order to train segmentation models and quantify how well they are able to find these structures in the scans. Furthermore, we propose an adaptation to the loss function in training these segmentation models and through this achieve a +1.27% Dice increase in performance. Our fine-grained TAVR-relevant pseudo-labels and the computed tomography scans we build upon are available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.16274176.

Automated Prediction of Paravalvular Regurgitation before Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation
Severe aortic stenosis is a common and life-threatening condition in elderly patients, often treated with Transcatheter Aortic Valve Implantation (TAVI). Despite procedural advances, paravalvular aortic regurgitation (PV…
A CT-based deep learning system for automatic assessment of aortic root morphology for TAVI planning
Accurate planning of transcatheter aortic implantation (TAVI) is important to minimize complications, and it requires anatomic evaluation of the aortic root (AR), commonly done through 3D computed tomography (CT) image a…
AnatomyComputed Tomography (CT)Multi-Task Deep Convolutional Neural Network for the Segmentation of Type B Aortic Dissection
Segmentation of the entire aorta and true-false lumen is crucial to inform plan and follow-up for endovascular repair of the rare yet life threatening type B aortic dissection. Manual segmentation by slice is time-consum…
SegmentationTowards Optimal Valve Prescription for Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) Surgery: A Machine Learning Approach
Transcatheter Aortic Valve Replacement (TAVR) has emerged as a minimally invasive treatment option for patients with severe aortic stenosis, a life-threatening cardiovascular condition. Multiple transcatheter heart valve…
3D Path Planning from a Single 2D Fluoroscopic Image for Robot Assisted Fenestrated Endovascular Aortic Repair
The current standard of intra-operative navigation during Fenestrated Endovascular Aortic Repair (FEVAR) calls for need of 3D alignments between inserted devices and aortic branches. The navigation commonly via 2D fluoro…
