Method for visual representation of blood vessel, particularly left heart atrium of patient, involves incorporating three-dimensional image data set of blood vessel, where space segment is extracted from image data set of blood vessel

摘要

The method involves incorporating a three-dimensional image data set of a blood vessel (2). A space segment (S) is extracted from the image data set of the blood vessel. A top view representation (D) is produced by rendering along a central beam (15) on a sectioned surface of a part (S2) of the space segment. An independent claim is included for a device for visual representation of a blood vessel, particularly left heart atrium of a patient.
