Two new research papers on arXiv present advanced methods for creating detailed 3D models of the human heart from medical scans. The first paper introduces a semi-automatic pipeline that converts CT-based segmentations into simulation-ready cardiac meshes, enabling the construction of statistical shape models and synthetic anatomy generation for in silico studies. The second paper, HeartVolMesh, proposes a novel approach using a 3D CNN-GNN to predict vertex displacements and covariances, which then guides the deformation of a tetrahedral template to reconstruct accurate patient-specific cardiac meshes with built-in correspondence.
