Complete motion-analysis workflow for the left atrium (LA) using 3D Cine MRI, combining an online-learning segmentation network with an image-registration network to compute LA displacement vector fields (DVF) and principal strains across the cardiac cycle. Validated on 10 healthy volunteers and 8 cardiovascular disease patients, Aladdin accurately tracks LA wall motion and can identify regional deformation abnormalities that may indicate focal pathology, agreeing well with 2D Cine MRI global function estimates.

Foundation vision-language model for cardiac MRI that learns pathophysiological visual representations directly from the natural-language radiology reports accompanying each scan, rather than from hand-labeled targets. A Multi-scale Vision Transformer (MViT, Kinetics-400-initialized) video encoder for cine CMR sequences is contrastively pretrained (InfoNCE) against a PubMed-pretrained BERT text encoder over 19,041 multi-institutional CMR studies. The frozen vision encoder transfers with strong performance to left-ventricular ejection-fraction regression (MAE 3.34% on a UK Biobank hold-out of ~4,259-45,623 participants) and detecting HFrEF (LVEF<40%, AUC 0.880), and the paper reports emergent zero-/few-shot performance across 39 cardiac and non-cardiac conditions including cardiac amyloidosis and hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Code and pretrained MViT encoder weights are both released (Hugging Face, CC BY-NC 4.0).

Fully automated deep learning workflow for characterizing cardiac mechanics from balanced steady-state free-precession (bSSFP) cine cardiac MRI. It decouples two convolutional networks—a segmentation net (CarSON) and a 3D motion-estimation net (CarMEN)—to derive left- and right-ventricular volumes plus global and regional myocardial strain and strain rate without manual tracing. Trained and validated on healthy and cardiovascular-disease subjects and shown to be robust across MRI vendors, with excellent intra-scanner repeatability for strain. Developed at Massachusetts General Hospital and the Harvard-MIT Division of Health Sciences and Technology.

Vision-language model that jointly embeds a cardiac MRI study, treated as video, with the impression section of its clinical report. Combines a video encoder over cine/LGE frame sequences with a Bio+ClinicalBERT text encoder using CLIP-style contrastive training. Supports zero-shot and few-shot classification of cardiomyopathies, amyloidosis, and LV dysfunction, plus image/report retrieval and structured report drafting. Trained on a private, single-institution corpus of roughly 11,000-14,000 CMR study-report pairs from Cleveland Clinic and Case Western.
