A NEW, OTHER THAN ACOUSTIC, QUANTIFICATION METHOD FOR ENDOCARDIUM DETECTION IN ECHOCARDIOGRAPHIC IMAGES

A new, semiautomatic algorithm for tracing outlines of endocardium of newborns that are detectable in echocardiographic images is presented. The main advantage of the method proposed is its low sensitivity to operator errors. Moreover, in contrast to the acoustic quantification method (AQ), an analy...
