Fig. 5From: QCard-NM: Developing a semiautomatic segmentation method for quantitative analysis of the right ventricle in non-gated myocardial perfusion SPECT imagingThe stress/rest scan for two sample patients. Patient A a normal individual with no significant CAD based on CA report. Patient B a 3VD patient based on CA report. For each individual, three rows of images are represented. First row: the short-axis image slices are represented. Second row: LV is extracted automatically by the proposed segmentation algorithm to enhance the RV visualization. Third row: the RV quantified polar map by proposed method. (The numerical values represent the maximal/average RV/LV uptake ratio)Back to article page
