Owing to the large amount of speckle noise and ill-defined edges present in echocardiographic images, computerbased
boundary detection of the left ventricle (LV) has proved to be a challenging problem. In this paper, a Markovian level set
method for boundary detection in long-axis echocardiographic images is proposed. It combines MRF model which makes use
of local statistics with level set method which handles topological changes, to detect a continuous and smooth LV boundary.
Experimental results show that high accuracy is achieved with the proposed method. The experimental results are also compared
with two related MRF-based methods to demonstrate its superiority. |
