An Angle Image is a representation of a Tagged MRI which recovers the relative position of the tissue respect to the distorted tags. Thus cardiac deformation can be estimated. This paper describes a new approach to generate Angle Images using a bank of Gabor filters in short axis cardiac Tagged MRI. Our method improves the Angle Images obtained by global techniques, like HARP, with a local frequency analysis. We propose to use the phase response of a combination of a Gabor filters bank, and use it to find a more precise deformation of the left ventricle. We demonstrate the accuracy of our method over HARP by several experimental results.", optnote="IAM;MILAB", optnote="exported from refbase (http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/show.php?record=595), last updated on Fri, 11 Nov 2016 12:28:17 +0100", isbn="1-58603-560-6", opturl="http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=1565854", file=":http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/BGC2005.pdf:PDF" }
