• load the movie file on matlab (check functions such as videoreader, etc), then extract and save the end-diastolic (ed) and end-systolic (es) frames in matlab

To load a movie file in Matlab, we can use the VideoReader function. This function reads a video file and returns a VideoReader object.

Here's an example code snippet that loads a movie file and extracts the end-diastolic and end-systolic frames:

main.m
% Load the movie file
v = VideoReader('movie.mp4');

% Read the video frames
nFrames = v.NumberOfFrames;
frames = cell(nFrames, 1);
for i = 1:nFrames
    frames{i} = read(v, i);
end

% Extract the end-diastolic (ED) and end-systolic (ES) frames
EDIndex = 1;
ESIndex = nFrames;
for i = 1:nFrames
    % Calculate the average intensity of each frame
    intensity(i) = mean(mean(rgb2gray(frames{i})));
    
    % Find the ED frame
    if i > 1 && intensity(i) > intensity(i-1) && i < nFrames/2
        EDIndex = i;
    end
    
    % Find the ES frame
    if i > 1 && intensity(i) < intensity(i-1) && i > nFrames/2
        ESIndex = i;
        break;
    end
end

% Save the ED and ES frames
imwrite(frames{EDIndex}, 'ED_frame.png');
imwrite(frames{ESIndex}, 'ES_frame.png');

This code reads in the movie file using VideoReader, and then loops over each frame to calculate its average intensity. It then searches for the frame with the highest intensity (the end-diastolic frame), and the frame with the lowest intensity (the end-systolic frame). Finally, it saves these frames as ED_frame.png and ES_frame.png, respectively.

Note that this is just one example of how to extract ED and ES frames from a movie file in Matlab, and there are many other ways to accomplish this task depending on the specifics of the application.
