摘要
A method for three-dimensional shape analysis of left ventricle (LV) is presented in this article. The method uses three-dimensional transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) as the source to derive the 3D wire-frame model and the related shape descriptors. The shape descriptors developed in this article include regional surface changing (RSC), global surface curvature (GSC), surface distance (SD), normalized surface distance (ND), and effective radius (ER) of the endocardial surface. Based on these shape descriptors, the shape of LV could be sketched in both static and dynamic manner. The results show that the new approach provides a robust but easy method to quantify regional and global LV shape from 2D and 3D echocardiograms.
