Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method of displaying image data for a tissue of an organ includes acquiring a three-dimensional (3D) projection dataset using a Computed Tomography (CT) imaging system, performing a segmentation of the 3D projection dataset that includes a plurality of voxels, performing a perfusion viability cluster analysis to identify myocardium voxels, grouping the myocardium voxels into viable clusters and non-viable clusters based on a density and a location of the myocardium voxels, and generating an image of the myocardium and a coronary tree using the viable clusters and the non-viable clusters. An imaging system and a non-transitory computer readable medium are also described herein.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for displaying image data for a myocardium of a heart, said method comprising: acquiring a three-dimensional (3D) projection dataset using a Computed Tomography (CT) imaging system; performing a segmentation of the 3D projection dataset to identify a plurality of voxels representing heart cavity voxels; performing a segmentation of the heart cavity voxels to identify a plurality of voxels representing myocardium voxels; grouping the myocardium…
