Abstract

Assessment of the left atrial (LA) wall can provide valuable information for treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF) patients. In this work, we propose a fully automatic workflow to segment the atrial wall from contrast-enhanced CT angiography (CTA). The workflow consists of 3 steps: (1) global segmentation of LA by multi-atlas image registration approach, (2) selected enhancement of the atrial wall by nonlinear intensity transformation, (3) segmentation of the inner and outer boundary of atrial wall by level-set approach.
