Title: Fast Tracking of the Left Ventricle Using Global Anatomical Affine Optical Flow and Local Recursive Block Matching
Authors: Barbosa D., Friboulet D., D'hooge J., Bernard O.
Abstract: We present a novel method for segmentation and tracking of the left ventricle (LV) in 4D ultrasound sequences using a combination of automatic segmentation at the end-diastolic frame and tracking using both a global optical flow-based tracker and local block matching. The core novelty of the proposed algorithm relies on the recursive formulation of the block-matching problem, which introduces temporal consistency on the patterns being tracked. The proposed method offers a competitive solution, with average segmentation errors of 2.29 and 2.26mm in the training (#=15) and testing (#=15) datasets respectively.
