N2 - This paper briefly describes a left ventricle myocardium segmentation method in multi-slice computerized tomography images. The segmentation technique is based on level-sets deformable contours. The proposed method has two stages: in the first stage the left ventricle internal wall or endocardium is segmented. In the second stage the external wall is segmented starting with an initialization based on the endocardial segmented shape. This algorithm is intended for incorporation within a software platform for visualization and processing of cardiac images. This platform would help the diagnosis of the left ventricle hypertrophy (LVH).
