Module Description
Note: This module is licensed for research purposes only. This module relies on code made available by Vladimir Kolmogorov for research use only. See this web site for more information.
The module automatically segments the left atrium from a cardiac LGE-MRI image volume. The input to the module is a cardiac LGE-MRI image, a smoothness parameter and model data. The model is arbitrarily selected and can be changed to check if it improves the segmentation output. Model data to run this module can be downloaded from the Slicer Midas repository.
Use Cases
This module can be used to automatically segment the Left Atrium from a cardiac LGE-MRI image.
