TEMPORAL ANATOMICAL TARGET TAGGING IN ANGIOGRAMS

摘要

An image processing apparatus and method take as input a pre op reference image (OP) and a stream (A) of angiographic images (A1 A3). Based on a plurality of predefined regions of interest (ROIa c) in said reference image (PO) the angiographic image best showing when displayed a respective one of the regions of interest (ROIa c) is detected from among the steam (A) of angiographic imag es (A1 A3). The detected angiographic image is associated with said region of interest to form an associative data structure (DS). A graphical user interface (GUI) is generated that allows based on said associative data structure (DS) to retrieve the associated angiog raphy upon a user selecting any one of the regions of interest (ROIa c) on said graphical user interface (GUI).
