From: Gated myocardial perfusion SPECT underestimates left ventricular volumes and shows high variability compared to cardiac magnetic resonance imaging -- a comparison of four different commercial automated software packages

Figure 2

Example of delineation. Delineation of the left ventricle in end diastole (ED) and end systole (ES) from MR imaging and MPS using Quantitative Gated SPECT (QGS), MyoMetrix (Myo), Emory Cardiac Toolbox (ECTb) and Exini heart. Images are shown in the short axis (SA), vertical long axis (VLA) and horizontal long axis (HLA). The long axis delineations are shown for illustration purposes. The MPS images were reconstructed iteratively. Quantification of MR images was only performed in contiguous short-axis slice covering the entire ventricle. Long-axis MR images are shown for illustrative purposes. All images are from the same patient.
