Evaluation of gated PET data using Corridor4DM. Delineations of LV borders are shown as end-diastolic (ED) frame in horizontal long axis (HLA), as end-systolic (ES) frame in HLA, as ED frame in vertical long axis (VLA), and as ES frame in VLA. Time–volume curve of LV over different phases is shown with volumetric results.
