Abstract: A system (SY) for determining a relative importance of each of a plurality of image features (Fn) of a vascular medical image impacting an overall diagnostic metric computed for the image from an automatically-generated diagnostic rule. A medical kin image database (MIDB) includes a plurality of vascular medical images (M1 . . . k). A rule generating unit (RGU) analyzes the plurality of C vascular medical images and automatically generates at least one diagnostic rule corresponding to a common diagnosis of a subset of the plurality of vascular medical images based on a plurality of image features common to the subset of vascular medical images. An image providing unit (IPU) provides a current vascular medical image (CVMI) including the plurality of image features. A diagnostic metric computation unit (DMCU) computes an overall diagnostic metric for the current vascular medical image by applying the at least one automatically-generated diagnostic rule to the current vascular medical image. A decision propagation unit (DPU) identifies, in the current vascular medical image, the relative importance of each of the plurality of image features on the computed overall diagnostic metric.

Abstract: A stress prediction device for predicting mechanical stress exerted to a deformable object due contact between the object and an external device that is to be inserted into the object at an intended insertion position comprises a segmentation unit configured to access generic model data representing a generic reference object that comprises predefined secondary landmark features at predefined landmark positions, which are not identifiable using a predefined imaging technique, and pre-insertion object image data acquired using the imaging technique. It provides segmented object model data which comprises associated mapped landmark position data indicative of mapped landmark positions of the secondary landmark features. A stress determination unit determines and provides predictive stress information indicative of mechanical stress exerted to at least one of the secondary landmark features at the associated mapped landmark position due to mechanical contact between the object and the external device.

Abstract: Mechanical image acquisition systems (such as medical C-arms) frequently accumulate geometrical errors which must be calibrated out using a calibration phantom. A more frequent regime of system calibration implies a less frequent use of the C-arm for clinical applications. The present application proposes to identify common biases between the acquired projection frame sequences from the same mechanical image acquisition system in first and second acquisitions, and to compare this to expected calibration data of the mechanical image acquisition system to generate frame deviation measures. If a resemblance between the first and second sequences of frame deviation measures is obtained, one or more calibration actions are performed (such as alerting the user that calibration should be provided, and/or automatically correcting for the geometry deviation).

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus configured to display an aortic valve image and an indicator when the aortic valve is in its open-state and/or when the valve is in its closed-state. The indicator is supposed to be in an overlay to the image of the aortic valve, such that a physician can see on the same display image the information needed to advance a guide wire or catheter through the aortic valve of a heart. This may prevent damaging ensures not to damage the aortic valve. The physician receives the relevant information, when the aortic valve is in its open-state and thus being in a state to be passed by the catheter. The information, whether the aortic valve is in its open-state or in its closed-state, corresponds to the systolic phase and the distal phase of the heart, respectively. The information, when the heart is in its systolic phase and when it is in the diastolic phase may be extracted from an ECG measurement. From the detection of these cardiac phases, the closed-state of the valve and/or the open-state of the valve can be estimated using general knowledge about flood flow during the cardiac cycle.

Abstract: The invention addresses the problem of correctly positioning a catheter and reducing radiation doses. It relates to an X-ray imaging system (1) for a robotic catheter, comprising said catheter (3), and a processing unit (5) for receiving X-ray images of a patient environment (15). By being adapted to receive one or more auxiliary information items and using said information for determining the catheter position, the processing unit does not entirely have to rely on a large number of scanned image data, thus helping to reduce radiation while correctly delivering the catheter position as a function of as few as a single image, preferably 2D, and said one auxiliary information items. Further, said processing unit allows for at least one of rendering an image and provide said image to a visualization device (21), and providing feedback, e.g. steering commands, to said robotic catheter.

Abstract: A method includes determining at least one characteristic about a stenosis in a vessel of a patient from image data of the stenosis, mapping the characteristic to a predefined stenosis characteristic to fractional flow reserve value look up table, identifying the fractional flow reserve value in the look up table corresponding to the characteristic, and visually presenting the image data and the identified fractional flow reserve value. A system includes memory storing a pre-defined stenosis characteristic to fractional flow reserve value look up table, a metric determiner (118) that maps at least one characteristic about a stenosis in a vessel of a patient, which is determined from image data of the stenosis, to a characteristic in the look up table and identifies a fractional flow reserve value corresponding to the characteristic, and a display (116) that visually presents the image data and the identified fractional flow reserve value.

Abstract: The invention relates to a projection data acquisition apparatus (14) for acquiring projection data for being used for reconstructing a computed tomography image. In acquisition intervals projection data are acquired only at certain acquisition rotational positions of a radiation source (2) relative to an object, wherein an acquisition rotational position of a current acquisition interval divides a largest non-acquisition angular region covering rotational positions, at which projection data have not already been acquired, into two smaller non-acquisition angular regions. Because of this acquisition of the projection data, after each acquisition interval the acquisition rotational positions, at which projection data have been acquired already, are relatively homogeneously distributed. This allows for an improved image quality of a computed tomography image which is reconstructed based on the acquired projection data.
