Abstract

OBJECTIVE: We propose a deep learning-based fully automatic right ventricle (RV) segmentation technique that targets radially reconstructed long-axis (RLA) images of the center of the RV region in routine short axis (SA) cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) images. Accordingly, the purpose of this study is to compare the accuracy of deep learning-based fully automatic segmentation of RLA images with the accuracy of conventional deep learning-based segmentation in SA orientation in terms of the measurements of RV strain parameters.
