Abstract:
The present invention relates to localization of a vascular treatment and quantification of a part of a vascular structure. It is described to provide (12) at least one first image comprising a representation of a region of interest of a vascular structure. At least one second image comprising a representation of the region of interest of the vascular structure is provided (14). Between an acquisition of the at least one first image and an acquisition of the at least one second image, a vascular treatment might have been applied to the region of interest of the vascular structure, wherein the representation of the region of interest of the vascular structure relates to spatial extension information of the vascular structure at least in one image plane. At least one reference image from an image set formed from the at least one first image and the at least one second image is selected (16). At least one sample image from the image set formed from the at least one first image and the at least one second image is selected (18), wherein the at least one sample image is different to the at least one reference image. At least one image from the at least one sample image is registered (20) with the at least one reference image to provide at least one registered image. It is determined (22) if there exists at least one region of spatial discrepancy between the representation of the region of interest in the at least one reference image and the representation of the region of interest in the at least one registered image. Data is output (24) representative of the at least one region of spatial discrepancy.
