An accurate identification of anatomical cardiac features allows more robust and accurate functional and structural analysis of the heart. Hence, anatomical landmark points are obviously essential for an automated cardiac MRI segmentation method. In this challenge, we focus on automatic landmark point detection method, which is particularly necessary for building a 3D LV model. These landmark points include mitral valve points, right ventricular (RV) insert points and base-to-apex central axis points
Mitral valve points LV center at base & apex RV insert points
- 100 cases for training set with annotation files for landmark points:
- 2 coordinate points of mitral valve in long-axis views
- 1 coordinate point of LV center at base
- 1 coordinate point of LV center at apex
- 2 coordinate points for each slice of short-axis views
- 100 cases for validation set
