Semi-Automatic Estimation of Device Size for Left Atrial Appendage Occlusion in 3D TEE images

Left atrial appendage (LAA) occlusion is used to reduce the risk of thromboembolism in patients with nonvalvular atrial fibrillation, by obstructing the LAA through a percutaneously delivered device. Nonetheless, correct device sizing is complex, requiring the manual estimation of different measurem...
