Mr Joshua Dillon
Phd Student
Auckland Bioengineering Institute, University of Auckland

Automated 3D biventricular assessment of remodelling from cardiac magnetic resonance imaging discriminates between left ventricular hypertrophy phenocopies

12:50 PM - 12:55 PM

Biography

Joshua Dillon is a PhD student at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute. His research focuses on cardiac imaging and deep learning, with an interest in the clinical potential of 3D echocardiography. His aim is to develop tools for creating personalised 3D biventricular geometries from CMR and 3D echocardiography and translate them to clinical practice.
Miss Ruby Dunphy
Research Assistant
Auckland Bioengineering Institute

A composite echocardiography score for non-invasive rejection prediction in the acute post-transplant period

12:55 PM - 1:00 PM

Biography

Ruby Dunphy is a Master's of Engineering student in the Cardiac Mechanics Research Group at Auckland Bioengineering Institute. Her thesis explored non-invasive prediction of heart transplant rejection using echocardiography.
Mr George Harpur
Phd Student
Auckland Bioengineering Institute

Cardiac amyloidosis preferentially compromises subendocardial LV wall thickening strain but not torsion

1:00 PM - 1:05 PM

Biography

George Harpur has a Master of Bioengineering, working in the Heart Mechanics Research Group at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute. His research focuses primarily in the field of developing methods for estimating cardiac strains from CMR images. He is particularly interested in determining if high resolution local strain indices can offer insight in clinical environments and tools.
Mr Lance Jones
5th Year Medical Student
Auckland Bioengineering Institute, University of Auckland

3D echocardiography-derived left atrial global longitudinal strain may outperform 2D echocardiography for detecting diastolic dysfunction

1:05 PM - 1:10 PM

Biography

Lance is a fifth-year medical student at the University of Auckland. He is interested in cardiovascular research focusing on 3D modelling of the left atrium and its clinical implications. Lance is currently working on 3D-derived left atrial strains and their potential as biomarkers for diastolic dysfunction.
Miss Mathilde Verlyck
PhD Student
Auckland Bioengineering Institute, University of Auckland

A multimodal deep learning model for non-invasive detection of elevated left ventricular end-diastolic pressure

1:10 PM - 1:15 PM

Biography

Mathilde is a PhD student in the Heart Mechanics Research Group at the Auckland Bioengineering Institute. Her research focuses on the advancement of heart failure prognostic modelling. She aims to leverage image analysis and biophysical modelling to investigate potential biomarkers for heart failure prognostic. She is particularly interested in developing non-invasive and standardised methods to facilitate their integration into clinical workflows.
