AB  - In this paper, we combine a network-based method with image registration to develop a shape-based bi-ventricular segmentation tool for short-axis cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) volumetric images. The method first employs a fully convolutional network (FCN) to learn the segmentation task from manually labelled ground truth CMR volumes. However, due to the presence of image artefacts in the training dataset, the resulting FCN segmentation results are often imperfect. As such, we propose a second step to refine the FCN segmentation. This step involves performing a non-rigid registration with multiple high-resolution bi-ventricular atlases, allowing the explicit shape priors to be inferred. We validate the proposed approach on 1831 healthy subjects and 200 subjects with pulmonary hypertension. Numerical experiments on the two datasets demonstrate that our approach is capable of producing accurate, high-resolution and anatomically smooth bi-ventricular models, despite the artefacts in the input CMR volumes.
