Left ventricular (LV) function evaluation is an integral part of every echocardiographic examination of the heart. Left atrial (LA) evaluation provides valuable clinical information that can contribute greatly to LV function evaluation. An automatic method for simultaneous tracking of LV and LA volumes through cardiac cycle is presented. The proposed method provides an extended framework for LV function analysis.
