Virtual 4D stent implantation path assessment

Abstract:

Systems and techniques for virtual assessment of an implantation path for a medical device are presented. A system can analyze multi-dimensional medical imaging data regarding a patient body and a lesion area, generate a set of paths to reach the lesion area for deployment of a medical device, rank the set of paths to reach the lesion area, and recommend a subset of the paths for deployment of the medical device. The system can also generate a display of the recommendations and a multi-dimensional visualization of the recommended subset of paths for the deployment of the medical device.
