The segmentation of cardiac MR images requires extensive attention as it needs a high level of care and analysis for the diagnosis of affected part. The advent of deep learning technology has paved the way for efficient, automatic and reliable segmentation of medical images for proper diagnosis. This manuscript proposes an augmented end to end trainable deep learning architecture for efficient segmentation of various domains of medical images. The model incorporates the depth wise separable convolution and group normalization as basic building blocks. Moreover, a noise stifler block is also induced between the encoder and decoder to counter the noise in the medical images. This path helps in delineating the precise boundary contours as the noise often reduces the boundary segmentation capability of the segmentation network. The network trained once produces exceedingly good results for the images of other datasets. An improvement of above (5 ± 0.03) % and (3.5 ± 0.02) % was observed in the Jaccard index and Dice score for cardiac MR images. The results are statistically validated as  p  &lt; 0.05. The automatic computer investigated approach can help in reducing the burden on the medical system by producing accurate and reliable results. The algorithmic results were clinically verified by the senior radiologists by comparison with the manually segmented images. The training time of the network was about 30% less than U-net.
