Abstract :
An approach is presented for analysing cardiac deformation mechanics. A physics-based deformable model is trained from a set of 4D images. The mechanics of myocardium are quantitatively analysed and the working conditions of the heart are statistically evaluated by observing their deviations from normal values.
