General Information

Module Type & Category

Type: CLI

Category: CARMA

Module Description

This module creates a cardiac MRI segmentation mask called the Shrink Wrap mask. The inputs are the left atrium endocardial segmentation and the left atrium wall segmentation. The output mask represents the entire endocardial layer minus the pulmonary veins (PVs). This mask can be used to calculate the early diastolic (peak) volume of the left atrium (LA).

Usage

Examples, Use Cases & Tutorials

• This module is meant to be used for removing the PV regions from the LA endocardial segmentation.

Quick Tour of Features and Use
