What is it about?

Automated heart image segmentation using artificial intelligence is very promising but on occasions, it gets it wrong. This work addresses how automatically quality control could flag when automatic segmentation did not work.

Why is it important?

Automatic heart image analysis is key to analyse large population studies, such as UK Biobank (100,000 participants with heart imaging). When the automatic analysis fails, we can now flag them so these results can be removed from further analysis or maybe be manually edited.

Perspectives

This work is an important step towards enabling​ fully automated heart image analysis and quality control of the automated analysis.
