Motion correction of wide-detector 4DCT images for cardiac resynchronization therapy planning
Lead placement at the latest mechanically activated left ventricle (LV) segments is strongly correlated with response to cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). We demonstrate the feasibility of a cardiac 4DCT motion correction algorithm (ResyncCT) in estimating LV mechanical activation for guiding lead placement in CRT.
