Computational Anatomy toolkit
Matlab-based toolkit to build statistical shape models (SSM) of anatomical structures (ventricles, atria, vessels, … or even kidneys or ribs, just get a template mesh!) from a variety of medical images (magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound or computer tomography). This toolkit has been used in a large number of studies
- Revealing the impact of being born premature when you are in your 20’s in Preterm Heart in Adult Life
- Describing how the little preterm heart catches up during the first 3 months of life in Disproportionate cardiac hypertrophy during early postnatal development in infants born preterm
- Reporting the benefits of breast milk for those born premature in Breast milk consumption in preterm neonates and cardiac shape in adulthood
- Revealing that the morphology of the atria (its roof) can predict the risk of atrial fibrillation recurrence in Novel computational analysis of left atrial anatomy improves prediction of atrial fibrillation recurrence after ablation
- Describing the chronic impact in the heart caused by an hypertensive pregnancy in Variations in cardiovascular structure, function, and geometry in midlife associated with a history of hypertensive pregnancy

Pressure mapping toolkit
Matlab-based toolkit to extract the spatio-temporal maps of pressure differences from 4D-flow MRI acquisitions, and metrics such as:
- The conduit and reservoir function of arteries (e.g. the aorta), as described in Unlocking the Non-invasive Assessment of Conduit and Reservoir Function in the Aorta
- The distance to pressure recovery, as described in Non-invasive assessment of pressure recovery distance after aortic valve stenosis
- Pressure differences accordingly to the Work Energy Relative Pressure (WERP) method, as described in Non-invasive pressure difference estimation from PC-MRI using the work-energy equation
- Pressure differences accordingly to the Virtual WERP (v-WERP) method, as described in Non-invasive estimation of relative pressure for intracardiac flows using virtual work-energy
- A lot of many other metrics as developed by the master of this toolkit, Julio Sotelo
