Ventricles Segmentation
Extracting the myocardial wall of the left (LV) and right (RV) ventricles are important steps in the diagnosis of cardiac diseases. In this paper, we we propose an method for automatically extracting the ventricles from cardiac CT images, which integrates region growing with shape segmentation in a natural way. In this framework, the shape segmentation provides seed regions for region growing while the latter reconstructs a heart surface for shape decomposition.
