Determination of hemodynamic indices

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18816501 titled 'Determination of hemodynamic indices

Original Abstract Submitted

Techniques for processing multiple cardiac images are disclosed. The multiple cardiac images, each of which depicts a portion of coronary arteries, i.e., the same portion of coronary arteries, within an anatomical region of interest, are obtained either during or after an angiography exam. A respective set of lumen radius measurements is determined based on each of the multiple cardiac images and comprises multiple lumen radius measurements respectively associated with multiple locations of the portion of the coronary arteries. A maximum stenosis severity profile and a minimum stenosis severity profile associated with the portion of the coronary arteries are respectively determined based on the respective sets of lumen radius measurements. A lumen radius profile associated with the portion of the coronary arteries is determined based on the maximum stenosis severity profile and the minimum stenosis severity profile. A respective value for each of at least one hemodynamic index at a given location of the portion of the coronary arteries is determined based on the lumen radius profile.
