Abstract
A method of segmentation of a three-dimensional image for generating a model of a myocardial wall includes recording a three-dimensional image of a wall of the myocardium, the wall delimiting at least one cavity of the heart; segmenting a continuous part of the wall into at least a first volume having a thickness less than a first predefined thickness threshold of between 0 and 5 mm and a second volume of a continuous part of the wall having a thickness greater than the first threshold; generating a model of the wall of the myocardium, where the continuous part of the wall of the myocardium is modelled according to at least two volumes that continue each other.
