| Sumario: | Dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) is a cardiomyopathy with left ventricle or double ventricle enlargement and systolic dysfunction. It is an important cause of sudden cardiac death and heart failure and is the leading indication for cardiac transplantation. Major heart diseases like heart muscle damage and valvular problems are diagnosed using cardiac MRI. However, it takes time for cardiologists to measure DCM-related parameters to decide whether patients have this disease. We have presented a method for automatic ventricular segmentation, parameter extraction, and diagnosing DCM. In this paper, left ventricle and right ventricle are segmented by parasternal short-axis cardiac MR image sequence; then, related parameters are extracted in the end-diastole and end-systole of the heart. Machine learning classifiers use extracted parameters as input to predict normal people and patients with DCM, among which Random forest classifier gives the highest accuracy. The results show that the proposed system can be effectively utilized to detect and diagnose DCM automatically. The experimental results suggest the capabilities and advantages of the proposed method to diagnose DCM. A small amount of sample input can generate results comparable to more complex methods. |
