Title
Semiautomatic volume conductor modeling pipeline for imaging the cardiac electrophysiology noninvasively.
Abstract
In this paper we present an approach for extracting patient individual volume conductor models (VCM) using volume data acquired from Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) for computational biology of electrical excitation in the patient's heart. The VCM consists of the compartments chest surface, lung surfaces, the atrial and ventricular myocardium, and the blood masses. For each compartment a segmentation approach with no or little necessity of user interaction was implemented and integrated into a VCM segmentation pipeline to enable the inverse problem of electrocardiography to become clinical applicable. The segmentation pipeline was tested using volume data from ten patients with structurally normal hearts.
