Three-dimensional modeling and assessment of cardiac tissue

A system for patient cardiac imaging and tissue modeling. The system includes a patient imaging device that can acquire patient cardiac imaging data. A processor is configured to receive the cardiac imaging data. A user interface and display allow a user to interact with the cardiac imaging data. The processor includes fat identification software conducting operations to interact with a trained learning network to identify fat tissue in the cardiac imaging data and to map fat tissue onto a three-dimensional model of the heart. A preferred system uses an ultrasound imaging device as the patient imaging device. Another preferred system uses an MRI or CT image device as the patient imaging device.
