Abstract:
An MRI image processing and analysis system may identify instances of structure in MRI flow data, e.g., coherency, derive contours and/or clinical markers based on the identified structures. The system may be remotely located from one or more MRI acquisition systems, and perform: perform error detection and/or correction on MRI data sets (e.g., phase error correction, phase aliasing, signal unwrapping, and/or on other artifacts); segmentation; visualization of flow (e.g., velocity, arterial versus venous flow, shunts) superimposed on anatomical structure, quantification; verification; and/or generation of patient specific 4-D flow protocols. An asynchronous command and imaging pipeline allows remote image processing and analysis in a timely and secure manner even with complicated or large 4-D flow MRI data sets.

Claim (Index 14):
The method of  claim 13  wherein providing a visual emphasis to at least one of voxels that represent the potential shunt or areas at least proximate the potential shunt includes assigning a third set of colors to the voxels that represent the potential shunt or areas at least proximate the potential shunt, the third set of colors different than both the first and the second sets of colors.
