1. A method for simulating perfusion of the myocardial muscle with the aid of non-dynamic computed tomographic angiography, comprising:

  • simulating a blood flow through coronary blood vessels of a heart on the basis of segmented coronary blood vessels from imaging data of the heart and determining, from the simulating, the blood flow into different regions of a myocardial muscle of the heart into which different branches of the coronary blood vessels lead; and

    simulating local perfusion of the myocardial muscle for the different regions from the determined blood flow into the different regions of the myocardial muscle of the heart.
