Summer Intern, Nordic Semiconductor

Developed an iOS app in relation to Ntention, making it possible to control drones with the Ntention glove. The app handled Bluetooth and WiFi connections, computing and processing of sensor values, and UI and UX.

Projects

Description of projects developed in relation to my Ph.D.. For further details,

  • AutoMAPSE 2D

    An AI-driven method utilizing 2D transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) for assessing left ventricular (LV) function in critical care patients post-cardiac surgery. We use state-of-the-art machine learning (ML) architectures for the detection and tracking of the mitral annulus in 2D TEE sequences, for the estimation of mitral annular plane systolic excursion (MAPSE).

  • AutoMAPSE 3D

    A fully automatic pipeline for the estimation of MAPSE in 3D TEE, including volume alignment, cardiac view classification, and mitral annulus segmentation in 3D. The comprehensive view provided by 3D TEE, coupled with the efficiency of automation, offer a more accurate and holistic assessment of the LV function. The use of 3D TEE reduces the need for manual intervention, thus streamlining clinical workflows and potentially improving patient outcomes in critical care settings.

  • synTEE

    Generation of synthetic 2D TEE data with ground truth motion fields of myocardial contraction. Method was developed by CREATIS, INSA, Lyon, France and adopted to TEE in collaboration with the research group through a research stay. This simulation pipeline generated synthetic images by mimicking ultrasound wave propagation and reflection through a physical simulator named SIMUS, coupled with post- process calculations. The pipeline also simulated various myocardial contraction patterns, including myocardial infarction in different cardiac segments. This was achieved by locally modifying the scatter map deformations to simulate reduced longitudinal contraction in affected areas, ensuring that global contraction remained consistent and that the endocardial and epicardial borders were unaffected.

  • AutoStrain

    Optical flow and point trajectory estimation in 2D TEE for the approximation of regional LV function in critical care patients by segmental longitudinal strain (SLS). AutoStrain hold a potential to transform the current practice by providing a more objective and automated approach to strain quantification. Accurate prediction of deformation by estimation of myocardial motion is vital for assessing regional LV function and detecting conditions such as ischemic cardiomyopathy.
