<br/><br/> We propose a software solution that can improve the analysis of contrast-enhanced magnetic  resonance imaging (CMR perfusion) in simple and effective way. The proposed workflow consists of six main steps: Preprocessing step, Localization step, initial contour extraction, registration, segmentation, and evaluation and validation of results. This thesis gives a detailed implementation for each mentioned steps. The algorithm, implemented using MATLAB, was developed and tested using 3 datasets
