Next-Generation Cardiac #MRI: Simplifying the Complex with AutoMate Cardiac by Seung Su Yoon, Jens Wetzl, et al. (Siemens Healthineers).
AutoMate Cardiac is a fully automated #CMR exam that uses a combination of deep learning networks to perform three key tasks:
1. AutoPositioning - automatically prescribing slices
2. AutoRestingPhase - determining quiescent ECG phases
3. AutoTI - setting the optimal inversion time
