One of the most important post-processing steps in the analysis of cardiac MR images is the segmentation of the blood pool, usually relying on manual delineation of the cardiac anatomy by an expert observer. Obtaining high quality segmentations of 4D Flow MR images acquired without the use of blood pool agents is especially challenging due to the low contrast between the blood and the myocardium present in these images. We propose an automatic multi-atlas segmentation technique that generates four-dimensional segmentations of the cardiac chambers and great thoracic vessels in 4D Flow MR images.
