Short and long-axis cine MR images are simultaneously fed into two neural networks, one for labelling the LV blood pool (red), LV myocardium (green), and RV blood pool (blue) and the second labelling ten valve landmarks throughout the cardiac cycle. The segmentations are converted to labelled contours and a biventricular template surface mesh is fitted to the labelled contours. Volumes, derived from the network generated cavity labels, as well as valve annuli motion are used as boundary conditions in the biomechanical simulations. Passive parameters are optimised by minimising the difference between the model and imaged geometries at end-diastole.
