## Indications for use
The CAAS MRV has been designed for quantitative functional analysis of the left and right ventricle of the heart based on multi-slice, multi-phase cine MRI images. Specifically, it enables the user to: 1. Delineate automatically or semi-automatically the inner and outer wall of the ventricles, as well as the papillary muscles, on the MRI images 2. Derive from these contours the global and regional functional parameters like Ejection Fraction, Stroke Volume, Wall Movement etc. The CAAS MRV has been designed to be used in everyday clinical practice, as well as for research purposes like clinical research trials.
