Automatic segmentation of the left-ventricular cavity and atrium in 3D ultrasound using graph cuts and the radial symmetry trans
In this paper, we propose a graph-based method for fullyautomatic segmentation of the left ventricle and atrium in 3D ultrasound (3DUS) volumes. Our method requires no user input ...
