Resumen

La segmentación del Ventrículo Derecho (VD) es esencial para el diagnóstico de múltiples patologías y condiciones cardiacas. Sin embargo, su delineación manual es una tarea tediosa y el soporte computacional resulta complejo debido a la variabilidad geométrica y dinámica. Este trabajo introduce una transformación y representación densa de Hough (TH) que permite una caracterización no paramétrica de la forma, codificando cada vóxel por su curvatura y orientación. Esta representación es integrada en un enfoque de seguimiento bayesiano, que logra de forma eficiente segmentar la estructura del VD, a lo largo del ciclo cardíaco. El enfoque propuesto fue evaluado en un conjunto de datos públicos, con 16 pacientes, logrando un coeficiente Sørensen-Dice de 0,87 y 0,92, para volúmenes completos y estructuras basales, respectivamente. Estos resultados evidencian una adecuada adaptación del modelo propuesto respecto a la forma del VD a lo largo de todo el ciclo cardíaco.
