| Abstract | Introduction Cardiac MRI (CMR) is often considered the reference standard for quantifying left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (EF). Although images have high spatial and contrast resolution, quantitative analysis is often performed using relatively low-resolution endocardial contours. Determining the correct position of the endocardial boundary and identifying the most basal short-axis slice can be subjective. This is especially problematic for less experienced users and is an increasingly important issue as CMR utilization increases and is performed at a growing number of imaging centers. |
