A Novel Myocardium Segmentation Approach Based on Neutrosophic Active Contour Model

Myocardial infarction (MI) is one of serious heart diseases, and the infarcted area can lead to the subsequent death of cardiomyocytes and vascular cells in the border area. The key point to reduce the mortality associated with MI is to limit and reduce infarct size [1]. Therefore, detecting myocardium and assessing infarction size are critical in the study of morphology and function of myocardium [2].
