UNASSIGNED: In @entity1 at risk of intraventrcular @entity715 , the benefits of chronic anticoagulation therapy need to be balanced with the pro-hemorrhagic effects of therapy. @entity1503 in the cardiac chambers is a recognized risk factor for intracardiac @entity715 and potential cardiogenic embolic events. In this work, we present a novel flow image-based method to assess the location and extent of intraventricular stasis regions inside the left ventricle (LV) by digital processing flow-velocity images obtained either by phase-contrast magnetic resonance (PCMR) or 2D color-Doppler velocimetry (echo- @entity31338 ). This approach is based on quantifying the distribution of the blood Residence Time (TR) from time-resolved blood velocity fields in the LV. We tested the new method in illustrative examples of normal hearts, @entity1 with @entity384 and one @entity1 before and after the implantation of a left ventricular assist device (LVAD). The method allowed us to assess in-vivo the location and extent of the stasis regions in the LV. Original metrics were developed to integrate flow properties into simple scalars suitable for a robust and personalized assessment of the risk of @entity715 . From a clinical perspective, this work introduces the new paradigm that quantitative flow dynamics can provide the basis to obtain subclinical markers of intraventricular @entity715 risk. The early prediction of @entity551 may result in decrease @entity64 by appropriate use of anticoagulant therapy for the purpose of primary and secondary prevention. It may also have a significant impact on LVAD device design and operation set-up.
