Assessing myocardial defects
Provides visual and quantitative assessment of segmented, low-attenuation defect areas within the myocardium from a single, gated cardiac CTA scan (retrospectively-gated spiral or Step and Shoot Cardiac). The CT Myocardial Defect Assessment application is based on the robust, automatic, model-based, whole-heart segmentation from the CT Comprehensive Cardiac Analysis (CCA) application.
Benefits
- color maps shown in short-axis views - segmentation maps shown on short-axis and polar plots, displayed along with long-axis reference images - volumetric visualization of coronary arteries along with segmentation maps displayed as an overlay on top of a 3D myocardial surface.
