AUTOMATIC THREE-DIMENSIONAL SEGMENTATION OF SHORT AXIS CARDIAC MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGES WITH DELAYED STAINING

摘要

FIELD: physics.;SUBSTANCE: system (200) has breaking unit (210) for breaking an image into a plurality of image areas, each image area displaying an area of the anatomical structure, and an adaptation unit (220) for adaptation of the referenced image to the evaluation function-based image, wherein the evaluation function is a function of parameters of the reference image and index numbers of the image and relative positions thereof on the image, and based on a criterion which must be satisfied by the index numbers of the evaluation function, wherein the evaluation function is determined based a plurality of image areas. Determination of the evaluation function based on a plurality of image areas enables to calculate optimum values of input into the value of the evaluation function within each image area.;EFFECT: high reliability of automatic detection of a cardiac muscle in short axis layer images.;11 cl, 9 dwg
