Inspired by coarse-to-fine approaches in image analysis, we propose a novel multitask compositional segmentation approach that can simultaneously localize the heart in a cardiac image and perform part-based segmentation of different regions of interest. We demonstrate that this compositional approach achieves better results than direct segmentation of the anatomies. Further, we propose a novel Cross-Modal Feature Integration (CMFI) module to leverage the metadata related to cardiac imaging collected during image acquisition. We perform experiments on two different modalities, MRI and ultrasound, using public datasets, Multi-disease, Multi-View, and Multi-Centre (M&Ms-2) and Multi-structure Ultrasound Segmentation (CAMUS) data, to showcase the efficiency of the proposed compositional segmentation method and Cross-Modal Feature Integration module incorporating metadata within the proposed compositional segmentation network.
