Abstract
4D cardiac imaging offers impactful insights into structural heart dynamics. However, analyzing 4D data using conventional 3D software tools requires additional effort. This paper introduces three natively 4D-optimized software applications we have developed: <i>ITK-SNAP 4</i> for 4D image I/O, visualization, and segmentation; <i>Greedy Propagation</i> for intra-series registration and creation of 4D segmentation from sparse 3D segmentations; and <i>Scherzo</i> for fast web-based 4D model generation and visualization. These open-source tools provide a streamlined user experience, comprehensive features, and broad file type support including common 4D cardiac image formats. Experiments on core features demonstrate feasibility and consistency.
