Left Ventricle: Fully Automated Segmentation Based on Spatiotemporal Continuity and Myocardium Information in Cine Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (LV-FAST)

Table 2

Summarization of main parameters.

Parameter	Value	Discussion
Middle slice (ms)		No influence on the algorithm
Jump factor ()		(1) Less than 2.5: LV volume will be underestimated.; (2) More than 2.5: LV volume will be overestimated.
Mass center displacement ()	pixels	(1) Less than 6: the slice with close myocardium is defined as the basal slice, which will result in the underestimated LV volume.; (2) More than 6: the basal slice without close myocardium cannot be detected, which will result in the overestimated LV volume.

Note: “” and “” are empirically parameters upon 30 deidentified cases.
