A Hybrid Method for Endocardial Contour Extraction of Right Ventricle in 4-Slices from 3D Echocardiography Dataset
Algorithm 1
Shape-based contour detection.
(1) Input: Binary-Segmented Image, S | (2) Output: Maximum Distances, | (3) Let , be reference RVCCP. | (4) Let P1, P2, P3 and P4. /* four parts of the RV cavity area */ | (5) MD1← Max(, , ) /* call function Max for each part to */ | (6) MD2← Max(, , ) /* determine the maximum distance */ | (7) MD3← Max(, , ) /* value of RV cavity diameters */ | (8) MD4← Max(, , ) | where … have been previously computed by GDC algorithm in section 3.1.2. |
