3D shallow deep neural network for fast and precise segmentation of left atrium

Knowledge of the underlying anatomy of the left atrium can promote improved diagnostic protocols and clinical interventions. Hence, an automatic segmentation of the left atrium on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) can support diagnosis, treatment and surgery planning of heart. However, due to the sma...
