Abstract: A medical-information processing apparatus according to an embodiment includes processing circuitry. The processing circuitry acquires medical image data that is obtained during imaging on the subject in a resting state in the time phase where the relationship between the volume of blood flow and the pressure in a blood vessel in the cardiac cycle of the subject indicates a proportional relationship. The processing circuitry extracts the structure of a blood vessel, included in the medical image data, applies fluid analysis to the structure of the blood vessel to obtain a first index value, which is obtained based on the pressure in the blood vessel on the upstream side of a predetermined position within the blood vessel and the relation equation between the volume of blood flow and the pressure in the blood vessel in the resting state, and a second index value, which is obtained based on the pressure in the blood vessel on the downstream side of the predetermined position and the relation equation, and calculates the pressure ratio, which is the ratio of the first index value to the second index value.

Abstract: According to one embodiment, a medical image diagnostic apparatus includes a storage memory, processing circuitry, and a display. The storage memory stores data of a plurality of FFR distribution maps constituting a time series regarding a coronary artery, and data of a plurality of morphological images corresponding to the time series. The processing circuitry converts the plurality of FFR distribution maps into a plurality of corresponding color maps, respectively. The display displays a plurality of superposed images obtained by superposing the plurality of color maps and the plurality of morphological images respectively corresponding in phase to the plurality of color maps. The display restricts display targets for the plurality of color maps based on the plurality of FFR distribution maps or the plurality of morphological images.
