Left ventricular segmentation based on a parallel watershed transformation towards an accurate heart function evaluation

Abstract: Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has emerged as the golden reference for cardiac examination. This modality allows the assessment of human cardiovascular morphology, functioning, and perfusion. Although a couple of challenging issues, such as the cardiac MR image's features and the large variability of images among several patients, still influences the cardiac cavities' segmentation and needs to be carried out. In this paper, we have profoundly reviewed and fully compared semi-automated segmentation methods p… Show more

“…Finally, an analysis stage which leads to the determination of the healthy or pathological character of the cardiac function under study. The work of several research groups gave rise to various publications concerning the analysis of marked MRI images [7], [19]- [21]. To contribute to a better understanding of these works, we will start with the concept of active contour [22] which was developed as a deformable curve in an attempt to get as close as possible to the contours of an image which helps locate and/or follow their movement over time.…”

“…The work of several research groups gave rise to various publications concerning the analysis of marked MRI images. 8,[19][20][21] To contribute to a better understanding of these works, we will start with the concept of active contour 22 which was developed as a deformable curve in an attempt to get as close as possible to the contours of an image which helps locate and/or follow their movement over time. These active contours are used in many applications such as locating vessels in angiograms and tracking heart movement.…”
