Abstract:
The present disclosure generally relates to an automated method and system for generating a panoramic visualization of a coronary arterial tree of a subject. The method comprises: acquiring an image volume of a thoracic cavity of the subject, the image volume providing a three-dimensional (3D) representation of the thoracic cavity; isolating a coronary structure in the 3D representation by abating one or more other anatomical structures in the thoracic cavity; abating one or more portions of the coronary structure in the 3D representation that attenuate visualization of the coronary arterial tree; generating, by maximum intensity projection (MIP), a plurality of MIP images of the coronary structure from the 3D representation; and compositing the MIP images to generate the panoramic visualization of the coronary arterial tree.
