Automatic segmentation algorithm. The new automatic algorithm for segmentation of myocardium at risk (MaR) in CE-SSFP lets the user define the culprit artery and the rotation of the left ventricle as input. The algorithm consists of four processing blocks, surface coil intensity correction, intensity classification by Expectation Maximization (EM), segmentation based on a priori information on MaR and incorporation of infarct region from LGE images
