| Summary: | Research on detecting, recognising and interpreting Cardiac
MRI has started since the 1980s. The problem with manual tracing efforts
hampering the adoption of cardiac MRI as routine investigation. Manual
tracing is also dependent on image quality, and there is no one-size-fitsall
MRI setting for the optimum image result. In this paper, we present
a proposed approach to automatically detect the left ventricle (LV) wall
in the effort to automatically assist the assessment of cardiac function.
Using a standard bechmark dataset, our experiments have shown that
our proposed method had effectively improve the automatic detection of
the epicardium and endocardium. |
