Method and system for providing information from a patient-specific model of blood flow
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method for providing patient-specific blood flow information using at least one computer system, the method comprising:
- receiving over an electronic network, at the at least one computer system, one or both of a geometric model and a reduced-order model representing at least a portion of an anatomical structure of a patient based on patient-specific anatomical data;
generating a display of the geometric model representing at least the portion of the anatomical structure;
receiving, at the at least one computer system, a user intervention input corresponding to a user dragging an intervention indicator across a display, to indicate a potential treatment of the anatomical structure;
initiating that a modification of the geometric model or the reduced-order model of the portion of the anatomical structure based on the user intervention input;
modifying a display of the intervention indicator on the display of the geometric model representing at least the portion of the anatomical structure, based on the received user intervention input;
calculating, by the at least one computer system, at least one blood flow characteristic based on the received user intervention input and the modification of one or both of the geometric model and the reduced-order model; and
generating, by the at least one computer system, a display of the calculated at least one blood flow characteristic for display with the display of the geometric model and the intervention indicator.

Abstract
Embodiments include a system for providing blood flow information for a patient. The system may include at least one computer system including a touchscreen. The at least one computer system may be configured to display, on the touchscreen, a three-dimensional model representing at least a portion of an anatomical structure of the patient based on patient-specific data. The at least one computer system may also be configured to receive a first input relating to a first location on the touchscreen indicated by at least one pointing object controlled by a user, and the first location on the touchscreen may indicate a first location on the displayed three-dimensional model. The at least one computer system may be further configured to display first information on the touchscreen, and the first information may indicate a blood flow characteristic at the first location.

20. A non-transitory computer readable medium for use on at least a computer containing computer-executable programming instructions for providing patient-specific blood flow information, the instructions being executable by the computer for:
-
receiving one or both of a geometric model and a reduced-order model representing at least a portion of an anatomical structure of a patient based on patient-specific anatomical data; generating a display of the geometric model representing at least the portion of the anatomical structure; receiving a user intervention input corresponding to a user dragging an intervention indicator across a display to indicate a potential treatment of the anatomical structure; initiating that initiates a modification of the geometric model or a reduced-order model of a portion of the anatomical structure based on the user intervention input; modifying a display of the intervention indicator on the display of the geometric model representing at least the portion of the anatomical structure based on the received user intervention input; calculating at least one blood flow characteristic based on the received user intervention input and the modification of one or both of the geometric model and the reduced-order model; and generating a display of the calculated at least one blood flow characteristic for display with the display of the geometric model and the intervention indicator.
