The Health AI and Data Science (HAD) Program presents
Novel View Synthesis of Coronary Arteries from Rotational X-ray Angiography
Speaker: Jay Kshirsagar
Jay Kshirsagar is a graduate student in Electrical & Computer Engineering at the University of Ottawa and is a graduate research trainee at the University of Ottawa Heart Institute under the supervision of Dr. Derek So, where his work focuses on the development
of novel view synthesis of coronary arteries. His research interests include computer vision, image processing, and generative AI. His talk will present current work from their recent Generative AI-approved conference paper.
Location: Virtual via MS Teams. Meeting ID: 238 798 701 680 | Passcode: ZU7iwQ

Learning objectives:

  • Basics of rotational X-ray angiography
  • Intro to novel view synthesis (NVS) and neural radiance fields (NeRFs)
  • Application of NVS in Coronary Artery Imaging
  • Differences between MedNeRF and StyleNeRF models
  • Clinical implications - reducing scans and contrast dye usage
  • Current challenges and future improvements

Please note that OHRI seminars are open to all members of OHRI and partner institutions. Members of the general public are asked to contact the communications office (jganton@ohri.ca) for more information about the research presented at OHRI seminars.
