Systems and methods for automatically determining myocardial bridging and patient impact

摘要

Embodiments include computer-implemented methods and systems for reporting the presence of myocardial bridging in a patient, the method comprising detecting, within a patient-specific model representing at least a portion of the patient's heart based on patient-specific anatomical image data regarding a geometry of the patient's heart, a segment of an epicardial coronary artery at least partially surrounded by the patient's myocardium to determine the presence of myocardial bridging; and computing, using at least one computer processor, at least one physical feature of the myocardial bridging to identify the severity of the myocardial bridging.
