1. A method for determining whether a patient is suitable for percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) intervention, comprising:
- receiving 4D cardiac image data of a patient comprising a plurality of frames, each frame comprising volumetric image data;
generating a patient-specific dynamic pulmonary trunk model based on the 4D cardiac image data of the patient; and
automatically classifying the patient as suitable or unsuitable for PPVI intervention based on the generated patient-specific dynamic pulmonary trunk model.

Abstract
A method and system for modeling the pulmonary trunk in 4D image data, such as 4D CT data, and model-based percutaneous pulmonary valve implantation (PPVI) intervention is disclosed. A patient-specific dynamic pulmonary trunk data is generated from 4D image data of a patient. The patient is automatically classified as suitable for PPVI intervention or not suitable for PPVI intervention based on the generated patient-specific dynamic pulmonary trunk model.
