A method (1100), system (1200), and apparatus (101) of determining optimal viewing planes for cardiac image acquisition, wherein the method includes acquiring a set of sagittal, axial, and coronal images of a heart, where the axial and coronal images intersect with the sagittal image orthogonally, and where the heart has a natural axis and a left ventricle ("LV") with a bloodpool, a bloodpool border, and an apex (1110). The method also includes making a map of the bloodpool border (1140), and using the map to create a full coordinate frame oriented along the natural axis (1160) |
