For analysis +cardiac functionality, extracting information from the Left +ventricular (LV) is already a broad field of Medical Imaging. +Different algorithms and strategies ranging that is semiautomated or automated has already been developed to get useful +information from such a critical structure of heart. Trabeculae in +the heart undergoes difference changes like solid from spongy. Due +to failure of this process left ventricle non-compaction occurred. +In this project, we will demonstrate the fractal dimension (FD) and +manual segmentation of the Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) +of the heart that quantify amount of trabeculae inside the heart. +The greater the value of fractal dimension inside the heart +indicates the greater complex pattern of the trabeculae in the +heart. + + +
