    摘要: A method and related system for automatically and efficiently isolating the heart in Computer Tomography (CT) or Magnetic Resonance Imaging cardiac scans is disclosed. The method involves segmenting a heart within a set of volumetric data. In accordance with one aspect of the present invention, the set of volumetric data is processed to determine the minimum value of an energy function having a first term, a second term and a third term. The heart is segmented based on the processing of the set of volumetric data.

    摘要: A method for segmenting a sequence of images includes developing an autoregressive model using training data including segmented images of a same type as the sequence of images. The sequence of images showing a progression of a subject through a cycle is acquired. At least two images from the sequence of images are identified. A region of interest is manually segmented from the identified images. The manually segmented images are parameterized. The autoregressive model is adapted to the parameterized segmented images. The autoregressive model is used to perform segmentation on the region of interest for a plurality of images of the sequence of images.

    摘要: A method and system for contrast inflow detection in a sequence of fluoroscopic images is disclosed. Vessel segments are detected in each frame of a fluoroscopic image sequence. A score vector is determined for the fluoroscopic image sequence based on the detected vessel segments in each frame of the fluoroscopic image sequence. It is determined whether a contrast agent injection is present in the fluoroscopic image sequence based on the score vector. If it is determined that a contrast agent injection is present in the fluoroscopic image sequence, a contrast inflow frame, at which contrast agent inflow begins, is detected in the fluoroscopic image sequence based on the score vector.
