Segmentation-Free Estimation of Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction Using 3D CNN Is Reliable and Improves as Multiple Cardiac MRI Cine Orientations Are Combined
(1) The use of traditional 3D-CNNs and a combination of multiple orientation planes is capable of estimating LVEF from cine-MRI data without segmenting ventricular contours, with a reliability similar to that of traditional methods. (2) Performance significantly improves as the number of orientation planes increases, providing a more complete view of the left ventricle.
