Segment the heart
In this chapter, we'll work with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging data from the Sunnybrook Cardiac Dataset. The full image is a 3D time series spanning a single heartbeat. These data are used by radiologists to measure the ejection fraction: the proportion of blood ejected from the left ventricle during each stroke.
To begin, segment the left ventricle from a single slice of the volume (im). First, you'll filter and mask the image; then you'll label each object with ndi.label().
This chapter's exercises have the following imports:
import imageio
import numpy as np
import scipy.ndimage as ndi
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
