Abstract
Single ventricle patients, including those with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS), typically undergo three palliative heart surgeries culminating in the Fontan procedure. HLHS is associated with high rates of morbidity and mortality, and many patients develop arrhythmias, electrical dyssynchrony, and eventually ventricular failure. However, the correlation between ventricular enlargement and electrical dysfunction in HLHS physiology remains poorly understood. Here we characterize the relationship between growth and electrophysiology in HLHS using computational modeling. We integrate a personalized finite element model, a volumetric growth model, and a personalized electrophysiology model to perform controlled in silico experiments. We show that right ventricle enlargement negatively affects QRS duration and interventricular dyssynchrony. Conversely, left ventricle enlargement can partially compensate for this dyssynchrony. These findings have potential implications on our understanding of the origins of electrical dyssynchrony and, ultimately, the treatment of HLHS patients.

Abstract
Advances in pediatric cardiac surgery have resulted in a recent growing epidemic of children and young adults with congenital heart diseases (CHDs). In these patients, congenital defects themselves, surgical operations and remaining lesions may alter cardiac anatomy and impact the mechanical performance of both ventricles. Cardiac function significantly influences outcomes in CHDs, necessitating regular patient follow-up to detect clinical changes and relevant risk factors. Echocardiography remains the primary imaging method for CHDs, but clinicians must understand patients' unique anatomies as different CHDs exhibit distinct anatomical characteristics affecting cardiac mechanics. Additionally, the use of myocardial deformation imaging and 3D echocardiography has gained popularity for enhanced assessment of cardiac function and anatomy. This paper discusses the role of echocardiography in evaluating cardiac mechanics in most significant CHDs, particularly its ability to accommodate and interpret the inherent anatomical substrate in these conditions.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The societal cost of shoulder disabilities in our aging society keeps rising. Providing biomarkers of early changes in the microstructure of rotator cuff (RC) muscles might improve surgical planning. Elevation angle (E1A) and pennation angle (PA) assessed by ultrasound change with RC tears. Furthermore, ultrasounds lack repeatability. PURPOSE To propose a repeatable framework to quantify the myocyte angulation in RC muscles. STUDY TYPE Prospective. SUBJECTS Six asymptomatic healthy volunteers (1 female aged 30 years; 5 males, mean age 35 years, range 25-49 years), who underwent three repositioned scanning sessions (10 minutes apart) of the right infraspinatus muscle (ISPM) and supraspinatus muscle (SSPM). FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE 3-T, T1-weighted and diffusion tensor imaging (DTI; 12 gradient encoding directions, b-values of 500 and 800 s/mm2 ). ASSESSMENT Each voxel was binned in percentage of depth defined by the shortest distance in the antero-posterior direction (manual delineation), i.e. the radial axis. A second order polynomial fit for PA across the muscle depth was used, while E1A described a sigmoid across depth: E 1 A sig = E 1 A range × sigmf 1 : 100 % depth , - EA 1 grad , E 1 A asym + E 1 A shift . STATISTICAL TESTS Repeatability was assessed with the nonparametric Wilcoxon's rank-sum test for paired comparisons across repeated scans in each volunteer for each anatomical muscle region and across repeated measures of the radial axis. A P-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant. RESULTS In the ISPM, E1A was constantly negative, became helicoidal, then mainly positive across the antero-posterior depth, respective at the caudal, central and cranial regions. In the SSPM, posterior myocytes ran more parallel to the intramuscular tendon ( PA ≈ 0 ° ), while anterior myocytes inserted with a pennation angle ( PA ≈ - 20 ° ). E1A and PA were repeatable in each volunteer (error < 10%). Intra-repeatability of the radial axis was achieved (error < 5%). DATA CONCLUSION ElA and PA in the proposed framework of the ISPM and SSPM are repeatable with DTI. Variations of myocyte angulation in the ISPM and SSPM can be quantified across volunteers. EVIDENCE LEVEL 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 2.

Abstract
Right ventricular dysfunction is a major determinant of outcome in patients with complex congenital heart disease, as in tetralogy of Fallot. In these patients, right ventricular dysfunction emerges after initial pressure overload and hypoxemia, which is followed by chronic volume overload due to pulmonary regurgitation after corrective surgery. Myocardial adaptation and the transition to right ventricular failure remain poorly understood. Combining insights from clinical and experimental physiology and myocardial (tissue) data has identified a disease phenotype with important distinctions from other types of heart failure. This phenotype of the right ventricle in tetralogy of Fallot can be described as a syndrome of dysfunctional characteristics affecting both contraction and filling. These characteristics are the end result of several adaptation pathways of the cardiomyocytes, myocardial vasculature and extracellular matrix. As long as the long-term outcome of surgical correction of tetralogy of Fallot remains suboptimal, other treatment strategies need to be explored. Novel insights in failure of adaptation and the role of cardiomyocyte proliferation might provide targets for treatment of the (dysfunctional) right ventricle under stress.

Evaluation of Right Ventricular Function and Myocardial Microstructure in Fetal Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome. J Clin Med 2022; 11:jcm11154456.

Abstract
Right ventricular (RV) function is one of the critical factors affecting the prognosis of fetuses with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (HLHS). Our study objectives included assessment of cardiac function and comprehensive measurement of cardiac microstructure. We retrospectively studied 42 fetuses diagnosed as HLHS by echocardiography. Myocardial deformation of the right ventricular wall was calculated automatically in offline software. Postmortem cardiac imaging for three control fetal hearts and four HLHS specimens was performed by a 9.4T DTI scanner. Myocardial deformation parameters of the RV (including strain, strain rate, and velocity) were significantly lower in HLHS fetuses (all p < 0.01). FA values increased (0.18 ± 0.01 vs. 0.21 ± 0.02; p < 0.01) in HLHS fetuses, but MD reduced (1.3 ± 0.15 vs. 0.88 ± 0.13; p < 0.001). The HLHS fetuses’ RV lateral base wall (−7.31 ± 51.91 vs. −6.85 ± 31.34; p = 0.25), middle wall (1.71 ± 50.92 vs. −9.38 ± 28.18; p < 0.001), and apical wall (−6.19 ± 46.61 vs. −11.16 ± 29.86, p < 0.001) had HA gradient ascent but HA gradient descent in the anteroseptal wall (p < 0.001) and inferoseptal wall (p < 0.001). RV basal lateral wall HA degrees were correlated with RVGLS (R2 = 0.97, p = 0.02). MD values were positively correlated with RVGLS (R2 = 0.93, p = 0.04). Our study found morphological and functional changes of the RV in HLHS fetuses, and cardiac function was related to the orientation patterns of myocardial fibers. It may provide insight into understanding the underlying mechanisms of impaired RV performance in HLHS.

Abstract
Background Knowledge of the normal myocardial–myocyte orientation could theoretically allow the definition of relevant quantitative biomarkers in clinical routine to diagnose heart pathologies. A whole heart diffusion tensor template representative of the global myofiber organization over species is therefore crucial for comparisons across populations. In this study, we developed a groupwise registration and tractography framework to resolve the global myofiber arrangement of large mammalian sheep hearts. To demonstrate the potential application of the proposed method, a novel description of sub-regions in the intraventricular septum is presented. Methods Three explanted sheep (ovine) hearts (size ~12×8×6 cm3, heart weight ~ 150 g) were perfused with contrast agent and fixative and imaged in a 9.4T magnet. A group-wise registration of high-resolution anatomical and diffusion-weighted images were performed to generate anatomical and diffusion tensor templates. Diffusion tensor metrics (eigenvalues, eigenvectors, fractional anisotropy …) were computed to provide a quantitative and spatially-resolved analysis of cardiac microstructure. Then tractography was performed using deterministic and probabilistic algorithms and used for different purposes: i) Visualization of myofiber architecture, ii) Segmentation of sub-area depicting the same fiber organization, iii) Seeding and Tract Editing. Finally, dissection was performed to confirm the existence of macroscopic structures identified in the diffusion tensor template. Results The template creation takes advantage of high-resolution anatomical and diffusion-weighted images obtained at an isotropic resolution of 150 μm and 600 μm respectively, covering ventricles and atria and providing information on the normal myocardial architecture. The diffusion metric distributions from the template were found close to the one of the individual samples validating the registration procedure. Small new sub-regions exhibiting spatially sharp variations in fiber orientation close to the junctions of the septum and ventricles were identified. Each substructure was defined and represented using streamlines. The existence of a fiber-bundles in the posterior junction was validated by anatomical dissection. A complex structural organization of the anterior junction in comparison to the posterior junction was evidenced by the high-resolution acquisition. Conclusions A new framework combining cardiac template generation and tractography was applied on the whole sheep heart. The framework can be used for anatomical investigation, characterization of microstructure and visualization of myofiber orientation across samples. Finally, a novel description of the ventricular junction in large mammalian sheep hearts was proposed.

Abstract
Cardiac fiber direction is an important factor determining the propagation of electrical activity, as well as the development of mechanical force. In this article, we imaged the ventricles of several species with special attention to the intraventricular septum to determine the functional consequences of septal fiber organization. First, we identified a dual-layer organization of the fiber orientation in the intraventricular septum of ex vivo sheep hearts using diffusion tensor imaging at high field MRI. To expand the scope of the results, we investigated the presence of a similar fiber organization in five mammalian species (rat, canine, pig, sheep, and human) and highlighted the continuity of the layer with the moderator band in large mammalian species. We implemented the measured septal fiber fields in three-dimensional electromechanical computer models to assess the impact of the fiber orientation. The downward fibers produced a diamond activation pattern superficially in the right ventricle. Electromechanically, there was very little change in pressure volume loops although the stress distribution was altered. In conclusion, we clarified that the right ventricular septum has a downwardly directed superficial layer in larger mammalian species, which can have modest effects on stress distribution. NEW & NOTEWORTHY A dual-layer organization of the fiber orientation in the intraventricular septum was identified in ex vivo hearts of large mammals. The RV septum has a downwardly directed superficial layer that is continuous with the moderator band. Electrically, it produced a diamond activation pattern. Electromechanically, little change in pressure volume loops were noticed but stress distribution was altered. Fiber distribution derived from diffusion tensor imaging should be considered for an accurate strain and stress analysis.
