METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR DETERMINING CORONARY HEMODYNAMIC CHARACTERISTIC(S) THAT IS PREDICTIVE OF MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

摘要

The systems and methods can accurately and efficiently determine a myocardial risk from a lesion disposed along a coronary segment using hemodynamic characteristic(s) associated with one or more sections of the corresponding lesion site. The method may include segmenting one or more lesion sites disposed along at least one arterial segment of the one or more arterial segments of the coronary model into one or more sections. Each lesion site includes a lesion. The method may include determining one or more characteristics for at least one section using at least the one or more characteristics associated with the at least one arterial segment. The one or more characteristics for the at least one section including hemodynamic force characteristic(s) (e.g., wall shear stress (WSS)). The method may include determining one or more risk indices for each lesion site using at least the hemodynamic force characteristic(s) for the at least one section.
