A method for cardiac segmentation includes providing a plurality of
digitized medical images, each image comprising a plurality of
intensities corresponding to a domain of points on an 2-dimensional grid,
the plurality of images forming a sequence of cardiac images acquired at
different time points, filtering noise from the sequence of images,
approximating the endocardium with a first circle, approximating the
epicardium with a second circle, finding candidate points for the
endocardium, finding candidate points for the epicardium, and
interpolating gaps between points of the endocardium and between points
of the epicardium wherein the myocardium is segmented.
