Automatic edema segmentation and quantification from cardiac MRI with 3D visualization

The extent of myocardial edema delineates the ischemic area-at-risk (AAR) after myocardial infarction (MI). Since AAR can be used to estimate the amount of salvageable myocardial post-MI, edema imaging has potential clinical utility in the management of acute MI patients. T2 weighted Cardiac Magneti...
