Abstract:	Cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has demonstrated to be the most accurate and reproducible tool for assessment of the cardiovascular system. Traditional quantification methods require acquisition of densely sampled data sets, resulting in increased analysis time. This paper demonstrates that comparable quantification accuracy can be achieved with a combination of sparsely sampled cardiac MR planes using a sparse data active shape model (SPASM) of the left ventricle.
