✦ Synopsis


This study presents a newly developed automatic method for segmentation of myocardium at risk using a priori knowledge on perfusion territories. The new automatic method shows a low bias and high correlation to manual delineation and a bias and correlation closer to inter observer variability for manual delineation than three existing threshold methods, 2SD from remote, FWHM and Otsu.

## Background Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) and T2-weighted cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) provides a means to measure myocardial area at risk (AAR) and salvage. Several T2-weighted CMR sequences are in use, but there is no consensus in terms of which sequence to be the preferred. Ther

Since edema is known to be an integral part of inflammation, a noninvasive technique that can identify edema in the coronary artery wall may provide unique information regarding plaque activity.
