| Abstract | An approach to analyzing the shape of the end-diastolic contour of the left ventricle of the heart is described. The procedure is adaptable to contour data derived from any one of several imaging modalities. The method involves modeling the contour as a thin flexible rod whose undeformed state is derived from measurements made on a group of normal patients. The amount of effort required to deform any particular contour away from the normal state into its characteristic shape is determined by first finding the local curvature differences between the contour and the mean normal contour at each of 100 normalized points. The weighted square of these differences, summed over all the points or some subset of them, is shown to be the global or regional bending energy of the contour. Resampling, smoothing and curvature-computation issues are considered for contours from contrast ventriculography and equilibrium radionuclide angiocardiography. Initial results show distinct bending-energy signatures for normal and abnormal studies and indicate the complimentary relationship between regional wall motion and regional bending-energy measurements.< |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
