METHOD OF PERFORMING TABLESIDE AUTOMATIC VESSEL ANALYSIS IN AN OPERATION ROOM

摘要

A method of performing an Automatic Vessel Analysis (AVA) in an Operation Room (OR) is presented. The method comprising the steps of: construction of an image of a vessel tree (3) out of a 3D Rotational Angiography (3D-RA) data set of an object's volume; displaying the image (9) at a screen (2) of a computer device (1); choosing a first vessel section of a vessel of the displayed vessel tree by touching the screen at a corresponding first location; choosing a second vessel section of the vessel by touching the screen at a corresponding second location; executing a vessel tracing function through a path of the vessel between the first vessel section and the second vessel section, wherein the shape of the vessel between the two vessel sections is analytically explored and displaying an image of the data corresponding to the shape of the vessel at the screen.
