Abstract:
A system and method for automated contrast arrival detection in temporally phased images or datasets of tissues effectively determines contrast arrival in regions that are substantially free of arteries. A plurality of tissue voxels in a plurality of temporally phased images are identified as a function of voxel enhancement characteristics associated with discrete tissue voxels. A processor/process computes average enhancement characteristics from the plurality of identified tissue voxels. The average enhancement characteristics are compared with predetermined average enhancement characteristics associated with contrast media arrival phases. Contrast media arrival phases in the temporally phased images are provided based on the comparison.

Claim (Index 3):
The method of  claim 2  further comprising outputting at least one of the contrast media arrival phases to an output device.
