* We are developing methods for segmenting the endocardium from the DE-MRI. The current proposed method is a multi-atlas based registration approach.  The user is presented with a weighted average of all registered atlas segmentations.  The final LA segmentation is a thresholded volume from this weighted average.  Weighting is based on the accuracy of the registration, as determined by a mutual information metric.
