Systems and methods for estimating ischemia and blood flow characteristics from vessel geometry and physiology
First Claim
1. A method for hemodynamic determination in medical imaging, the method comprising:
- acquiring medical scan data representing an anatomical structure of a patient to generate a patient-specific geometric model of the patient'"'"'s anatomical structure;
extracting a set of features of the patient'"'"'s anatomical structure from the patient-specific geometric model;
inputting, by a processor, the features of the patient'"'"'s anatomical structure from the patient-specific geometric model to a machine-trained classifier, the machine-trained classifier trained from synthetic anatomical data and hemodynamic metrics of a plurality of individuals; and
generating and outputting, by the processor using the machine-trained classifier applied to the extracted features of the patient'"'"'s anatomical structure, a hemodynamic metric corresponding to a flow of blood through the anatomical structure of the patient.

Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed for determining individual-specific blood flow characteristics. One method includes acquiring, for each of a plurality of individuals, individual-specific anatomic data and blood flow characteristics of at least part of the individual'"'"'s vascular system; executing a machine learning algorithm on the individual-specific anatomic data and blood flow characteristics for each of the plurality of individuals; relating, based on the executed machine learning algorithm, each individual'"'"'s individual-specific anatomic data to functional estimates of blood flow characteristics; acquiring, for an individual and individual-specific anatomic data of at least part of the individual'"'"'s vascular system; and for at least one point in the individual'"'"'s individual-specific anatomic data, determining a blood flow characteristic of the individual, using relations from the step of relating individual-specific anatomic data to functional estimates of blood flow characteristics.
