Moving object contour extraction apparatus, left ventricle image segmentation apparatus, moving object contour extraction method and left ventricle image segmentation

摘要

According to one embodiment, a moving object contour extraction apparatus (1400) includes a contour acquisition unit (1410, 1500, 1600) and a contour correction unit (1420, 1700). The contour acquisition unit (1410, 1500, 1600) is configured to acquire a contour of a moving object in each image slice. The contour correction unit (1420, 1700) is configured to correct the contours of the moving object in image slices of at least one image slice time series based on motion trend information of the moving object in each of a plurality of image slice time series.
