Phase-contrast (PC) MRI is used to evaluate blood hemodynamics; however, it can be time consuming to process PC-MR data. In this work, we developed a fully automated segmentation algorithm for PC MR images using deep learning (DL). Automated segmentation of aorta and main pulmonary artery from PC MRI scans can be successfully achieved using the DL model.
