SYSTEM AND METHOD TO GENERATE AN ILLUSTRATION OF A CARDIAC REGION OF INTEREST
First Claim
1. A method of generating an illustration of a cardiac region of interest of an imaged subject, the method comprising acts of:
- generating a three-dimensional model from a plurality of acquired images of the cardiac region of interest;
measuring a plurality of values of at least one functional parameter from one or more of the plurality of acquired images of the cardiac region of interest;
generating a map of a spatial relation of the plurality of values of the at least one functional parameter in spatial relation to the three-dimensional model of the cardiac region of interest;
generating a three-dimensional model of a vessel structure leading to the cardiac region of interest; and
generating an output image that includes combining the three-dimensional model of the cardiac region of interest, the map of the plurality of values of the at least one functional parameter, and the three-dimensional model of the vessel structure in spatial relation to one another relative to a common coordinate system.

Abstract
A system and method to generate an illustration of a cardiac region of interest of an imaged subject is provided. The method includes generating a three-dimensional model from a series of acquired images of the cardiac region of interest; measuring a series of values of at least one functional parameter of the cardiac region of interest; generating a map of a spatial relation of the plurality of values of the functional parameter in spatial relation to the three-dimensional model of the cardiac region of interest; generating a three-dimensional model of a vessel structure leading to the cardiac region of interest; generating an output image that includes combining the three-dimensional model of the cardiac region of interest, the map of the series of values of the functional parameter, and the three-dimensional model of the vessel structure in spatial relation to one another relative to a common coordinate system.
