Image Quality Assessment Framework - PLAX Full-MV - MV

Project Description


Visualizing the mitral valve (MV) in its entirety in PLAX images is essential for comprehensive cardiac evaluation. This project aims to create a standardized, open-access dataset of PLAX images focusing on full MV views, annotated by experts.

Project Goals

  • Develop a Reference Dataset: Compile a comprehensive dataset of PLAX images highlighting full MV views, annotated by experienced echocardiographers.
  • Standardize Full MV Assessment: Establish objective criteria for evaluating the quality of full MV views in PLAX images.
  • Empower AI Development: Provide a high-quality dataset to train and validate AI algorithms for detecting and enhancing full MV views.
  • Improve Image Acquisition: Develop training materials and guidelines to help sonographers optimize image acquisition for clear full MV views.
  • Enhance Diagnostic Accuracy: Improve the reliability of PLAX echocardiographic interpretations for better patient care.

Your Role

  • Review PLAX Echocardiographic Images: You will be presented with a series of PLAX echocardiographic images.
  • Assess Full MV Views: Use the provided guidelines and your expertise to assess the quality of full MV views in each image.
  • Rank Images: Rank the images based on the clarity and completeness of the full MV views.
  • Provide Feedback (Optional): Share your insights and suggestions for improving the annotation process or the assessment criteria.

How to Participate

  1. Create an Account: Register on the UnityImaging.net labelling platform.
  2. Access the Project: Join the "PLAX Full-MV MV Assessment Project."
  3. Review Guidelines: Familiarize yourself with the detailed annotation instructions and criteria for assessing full MV views.
