X Abstract

Heart failures (cardiac infarction) are of increasing importance due to increasing life expectation. For clinical diagnosis parameters for the condition of hearts are needed and can be derived automatically by imaging processing. In this work we present an efficient method to segment the left ventricle (LV) in heart MR data from rats using two linked active contour models working in a spherical coordinate system. The initial model used for the active contour scheme is generated from user given points by a radial interpolation algorithm. The model was developed on healthy heart data and was tested on 15 different data sets and the results are presented.

CiteULike organises scholarly (or academic) papers or literature and provides bibliographic (which means it makes bibliographies) for universities and higher education establishments. It helps undergraduates and postgraduates. People studying for PhDs or in postdoctoral (postdoc) positions. The service is similar in scope to EndNote or RefWorks or any other reference manager like BibTeX, but it is a social bookmarking service for scientists and humanities researchers.
