| contents | Cardiac deformation is a crucial biomarker for the evaluation of cardiac function. Current methods for estimating cardiac strain might underestimate local deformation due to through-plane motion and segmental averaging. Mesh-based mapping methods are gaining interest for localized analysis of cardiac motion and strain, yet they often do not consider important properties of cardiac tissue. In this work, we propose an extension of the large deformation diffeomorphic metric mapping framework to incorporate near incompressibility into the loss function that guides the mapping. As such, our mechanically regularized mLDDMM allows for accurate and mechanically coherent estimation of volume displacement and strain tensors from time-resolved three-dimensional meshes. We benchmark our method against the results of a finite element simulation of cardiac contraction and find a very good agreement between our estimation and the simulated ground truth. Our method forms a promising technique to extract volume displacement and strain tensors from time-resolved meshes while accounting for the incompressibility of cardiac tissue. |
