Automated biventricular quantification in patients with repaired tetralogy of Fallot using a 3D deep learning segmentation model

Deep learning is the state-of-the-art approach for automated segmentation of the left ventricle (LV) and right ventricle (RV) in cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) images. However, these models have been mostly trained and validated using CMR datasets of structurally normal hearts or cases with acquired cardiac disease, and are therefore not well-suited to handle cases with congenital cardiac disease such as tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). We aimed to develop and validate a dedicated model with improved performance for LV and RV cavity and myocardium quantification in patients with repaired TOF.
