Claim One:
1. A computer-implemented method for enabling the assessment of a coronary artery of a patient, based on a calculated blood flow characteristic, the method comprising: displaying, on a digital display device, a three-dimensional model of at least a portion of multiple coronary arteries branching from an aorta of the patient, wherein the three-dimensional model is provided by a computer system; displaying, on the display device, a first blood flow characteristic calculated by the computer system for at least one of the coronary arteries in the three-dimensional model; receiving an input to the computer system related to a treatment plan for the at least one of the coronary arteries, wherein the treatment plan includes a widening of a lumen defined by the at least one of the coronary arteries; and calculating and displaying, on the display device, a second blood flow characteristic for the at least one of the coronary arteries, wherein calculation of the second blood flow characteristic is based at least in part on the input.
