Patent ID: 8588489

Claim:
A method for displaying a vessel of a particular biological subject into which a particular object is inserted, comprising: individually assigning a first predefined parameter to a plurality of the biological subjects similar to the particular biological subject; individually assigning a second predefined parameter to a plurality of objects that can be inserted into a respective same type of the vessel in the plurality of biological subjects; obtaining a measured deformation parameter value describing a deformation of the respective same type of the vessel when one of the plurality of objects is inserted into one of the plurality of the biological subjects; assigning the first predefined parameter to the particular subject; assigning the second predefined parameter to the particular object; acquiring a fluoroscopic image of the vessel of the particular biological subject without the particular object inserted; inferring a deformation parameter value describing a deformation of the vessel when the particular object is inserted into the particular subject based on the assigned first and second parameter values and the measured deformation parameter value; and calculating a changed fluoroscopic image of the vessel based on the acquired fluoroscopic image and the inferred deformation parameter value.
