Cardiac magnetic resonance myocardial perfusion imaging can detect coronary artery disease and is an alternative to single-photon emission computed tomography or positron emission tomography. However, the complex, non-linear MR signal and the lack of robust quantification of myocardial blood flow have hindered its widespread clinical application thus far. Recently, a new Bayesian approach was developed for brain imaging and evaluation of perfusion indexes (Kudo et al.

Even if cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) perfusion imaging has proven its relevance for visual detection of ischemia, myocardial blood flow (MBF) quantification at the voxel observation scale remains challenging. Integration of an automated segmentation step, prior to perfusion index estimation, might be a significant reconstruction component that could allow sustainable assumptions and constraint enlargement prior to advanced modeling. Current clustering techniques, such as bullseye representation or manual delineation, are not designed to discriminate voxels belonging to the lesion from healthy areas.
