Patent ID: 7693909

Claim:
A computer implemented method for reporting quantitative measurement information including stenosis related information, the method comprising the steps of: forming a message comprising vascular quantitative measurement information generated by a quantitative measurement application executing on an imaging system, the message including vascular morphology information comprising stenosis information and being in a first data format corresponding to that of the imaging system; sending the formed message over a communication network to a data recording system including a coronary tree application; using the coronary tree application for presenting the vascular morphology information in a pictorial representation of coronary vasculature and said coronary tree application selects a vessel for processing and the size and anatomical position of stenosis is passed to the coronary tree application and displayed in a picture of the heart in a catheterization report; and employing the coronary tree application in generating a report including the vascular morphology information derived using the quantitative measurement application and contained in the message.
