Automated segmentation of scarified tissue can be used to accurately quantify the percentage of myocardium affected. This paper presents a method for cardiac scar detection and segmentation based on supervised learning and level set segmentation. First, a model of the appearance of scar tissue is trained using a Support Vector Machines classifier on image-derived descriptors. Based on the areas detected by the classifier, an accurate segmentation is performed using a segmentation method based on level sets. date: 2013 date_type: published series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science volume: 7746 publisher: Springer pagerange: 53-61 pages: 9 id_number: 10.1007/978-3-642-36961-2_7 refereed: TRUE isbn: 978-3-642-36960-5 book_title: Statistical Atlases and Computational Models of the Heart.
