Chapter 8. Cardiac function analysis
____________________________________________________________________________________________
Functionality is available in a separate module which is activated in the Pro edition for an extra fee
____________________________________________________________________________________________
The module is intended for providing ventricular function quantification on the basis of a set of short axes by way of contouring the region of interest (ROI). Contours may be built in the manual and the semi-automatic mode. The ventricular parameters are evaluated on the basis of the contours built.
 | Left ventricular function analysis based on Simpson’s rule is performed for MR modality series with images oriented along the short axis of the heart. |
