SYSTEM AND METHODS FOR SEGMENTATION AND ASSEMBLY OF CARDIAC MRI IMAGES

A method and system for image segmentation systems and related methods of automatically segmenting cardiac MRI images using deep learning methods. One example method includes inputting MRI volume data from a MRI scanner, segmenting the MRI volume data with a whole volume segmentation analysis module, assembling the segmented MRI volume data into a 3D volume assembly with a 3D volume assembly module, determining the 3D volume assembly for anatomic plausibility with an anatomic plausibility analysis module, and outputting a final segmented 3D volume assembly.
