Abstract

Cardiovascular function analysis is crucial for illness diagnosis, risk assessment, and therapy selection in clinical cardiology. Doctors may identify cardiac disorders such as right ventricular failure, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, and dilated cardiomyopathy using a variety of imaging modalities that allow them to spot pathological alterations. The optimum course of therapy may be chosen more quickly thanks to accurate automation of the relevant duties. Artificial neural networks and deep learning are the foundation of generative adversarial networks (GANs), which are methods for creating synthetic pictures. The potential capacity of the GANs to solve problems has attracted interest in addition to their inherent flexibility and the adaptability of deep learning, on which they are founded. This survey aims to examine the significance of medical imaging in the study and diagnosis of cardiac disease. Demonstrate the widespread adoption of GAN Network approaches in the field of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) medical image analysis; Explain the recent segmentation application of generative adversarial networks. GANs in cardiovascular imaging additionally Identify the hurdles to the effective application of the GAN Network to medical imaging tasks and highlight particular contributions that address or get around these problems
