This study carries out the segmentation of left ventricle with the help of active contour model or Snakes algorithm and the same is also carried out with the help of GVF Snake. The segmentation is carried on multi slice magnetic resonance images (MRI) of the heart, transversing the short axis length from base to apex. The algorithm is carried out on the inner boundary known as endocardium. The boundaries tracked by both the algorithms are compared with computational complexity and accuracy.GVF Snakes provide a better accurate segmentation as it can penetrate into concavities and the boundaries are tracked properly.
