Intracardiac hemodynamics plays a crucial role in the onset and development of cardiac and valvular diseases. Simulations of blood flow in the left ventricle (LV) have provided valuable insight into assessing LV hemodynamics. While fully coupled fluid-solid modelings of the LV remain challenging due to the complex passive-active behavior of the LV wall myocardium, the integration of imaging-driven quantification of structural motion with computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling in the LV holds the promise of feasible and clinically translatable characterization of patient-specific LV hemodynamics.

The quantification of cardiac strains as structural indices of cardiac function has a growing prevalence in clinical diagnosis. However, the highly heterogeneous four-dimensional (4D) cardiac motion challenges accurate "regional" strain quantification and leads to sizable differences in the estimated strains depending on the imaging modality and post-processing algorithm, limiting the translational potential of strains as incremental biomarkers of cardiac dysfunction. There remains a crucial need for a feasible benchmark that successfully replicates complex 4D cardiac kinematics to determine the reliability of strain calculation algorithms.

Several lung diseases lead to alterations in regional lung mechanics, including ventilator- and radiation-induced lung injuries. Such alterations can lead to localized underventilation of the affected areas, resulting in the overdistension of the surrounding healthy regions. Thus, there has been growing interest in quantifying the dynamics of the lung parenchyma using regional biomechanical markers.

Myocardial infarction (MI) continues to be a leading cause of death worldwide. The precise quantification of infarcted tissue is crucial to diagnosis, therapeutic management, and post-MI care. Late gadolinium enhancement-cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) is regarded as the gold standard for precise infarct tissue localization in MI patients.

The emergence of federated learning (FL) technique in fog-enabled healthcare system has leveraged enhanced privacy towards safeguarding sensitive patient information over heterogeneous computing platforms. In this paper, we introduce the FedHealthFog framework, which was meticulously developed to overcome the difficulties of distributed learning in resource-constrained IoT-enabled healthcare systems, particularly those sensitive to delays and energy efficiency. Conventional federated learning approaches face challenges stemming from substantial compute requirements and significant communication costs.

The myocardium is composed of a complex network of contractile myofibers that are organized in such a way as to produce efficient contraction and relaxation of the heart. The myofiber architecture in the myocardium is a key determinant of cardiac motion and the global or organ-level function of the heart. Reports of architectural remodeling in cardiac diseases, such as pulmonary hypertension and myocardial infarction, potentially contributing to cardiac dysfunction call for the inclusion of an architectural marker for an improved assessment of cardiac function.

Calculating cardiac strains through speckle tracking echocardiography (STE) has shown promise as prognostic markers linked to functional indices and disease outcomes. However, the presence of acoustic shadowing often challenges the accuracy of STE in small animals such as rodents. The shadowing arises due to the complex anatomy of rodents, with operator dexterity playing a significant role in image quality.

There are several lung diseases that lead to alterations in regional lung mechanics, including acute respiratory distress syndrome. Such alterations can lead to localized underventilation of the affected areas resulting in the overdistension of the surrounding healthy regions. They can also lead to the surrounding alveoli expanding unevenly or distorting.

Congenital abnormalities of lung are very rare entity, and very often under or misdiagnosed by physicians. The present case, a 12-year boy, who was initially diagnosed as unilateral massive pleural effusion with collapse of lung, and after thorough investigation, including CT scan of thorax, fiber-optic bronchoscopy, and echocardiography, a final diagnosis of unilateral lung hypoplasia was made. So if a teenager present with a unilateral opaque hemithorax in chest X-ray, this entity may be a differential diagnosis.
