1. A computer program product for automatically identifying and localizing anatomical regions of a left ventricle of a heart using a segment model, the computer program product comprising a computer readable storage medium having program instructions embodied therewith, the program instructions executable by a processor to cause the processor to perform a method comprising: receiving a volumetric image series of a certain phase in a heart cycle with associated myocardial boundaries, representing the heart; performing a long-axis partitioning on each image of the volumetric image series; performing a short-axis partitioning on each image of the volumetric image series; generating a parametric segment mask defining a plurality of segments of volumetric images of the volumetric images series and assigning anatomical segment labels to the plurality of segments of the volumetric images of the volumetric image series, wherein generating the parametric segment mask further comprises determining, in the short-axis partitioning on each image of the volumetric image series, an inner radius of a cylinder for each slice of the volumetric image series, and determining an outer radius of the cylinder by adding a predetermined thickness to the inner radius; applying a measurement function to the parametric segment mask to determine a plurality of regional functional parameters of a plurality of segments of the volumetric images, wherein the plurality of segments correspond to the anatomical segment labels; generating a polar map comprising a plurality of segments consistent with a segment standard for myocardial boundaries by mapping the plurality of regional functional parameters determined for each of the plurality of segments of the volumetric images to the plurality of segments consistent with the segment standard for myocardial boundaries, wherein the polar map is a visual representation of the plurality of regional functional parameters of the plurality of segments of the volumetric images for the certain phase determined by applying the measurement function to the parametric segment mask and mapped to the plurality of segments of the polar map; and generating a mapping from each of a plurality of points in the polar map to a corresponding voxels in the volumetric image series representing one or more anatomical locations in the volumetric image series, wherein each of the anatomical locations is characterized using the long-axis partitioning and the short-axis partitioning, and wherein the mapping facilitates selectable links between the plurality of points in the polar map and the corresponding voxels in the volumetric image series.
