A shape-space-based approach to tracking myocardial borders and quantifying regional left-ventricular function applied in echocardiography.

This paper presents a new semi-automatic method for quantifying regional heart function from two-dimensional echocardiography. In the approach, we first track the endocardial and epicardial boundaries using a new variant of the dynamic snake approach. The tracked borders are then decomposed into cli...
