    Abstract: Abstract: A method and apparatus of automatically locating in an image of a blood vessel the lumen boundary at a position in the vessel and from that measuring the diameter of the vessel. From the diameter of the vessel and estimated blood flow rate, a number of clinically significant physiological parameters are then determined and various user displays of interest generated. One use of these images and parameters is to aid the clinician in the placement of a stent. The system, in one embodiment, uses these measurements to allow the clinician to simulate the placement of a stent and to determine the effect of the placement. In addition, from these patient parameters various patient treatments are then performed. WO 2011/038044 PCT/US2010/049887 mo SUBSTITUTESEET(RULE26

    Abstract: In part, the invention relates to computer-based methods, devices, and systems suitable for displaying stent malapposition in a 2-D or 3-D image. A threshold malapposition distance can be set as an input in response to which a software component in an imaging pipeline automatically detects stent struts and calculates a malapposition distance from a lumen contour. Projections of stent strut dimensions can be used to compensate for stent imaging artifacts results from imaging probe orientation in the lumen.

    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to determining a stent deployment location and other parameters using blood vessel data. Stent deployment can be planned such that the amount of blood flow restored from stenting relative to an unstented vessel increases one or more metrics. An end user can specify one or more stent lengths, including a range of stent lengths. In turn, diagnostic tools can generate candidate virtual stents having lengths within the specified range suitable for placement relative to a vessel representation. Blood vessel distance values such as blood vessel diameter, radius, area values, chord values, or other cross-sectional, etc. its length are used to identify stent landing zones. These tools can use or supplement angiography data and/or be co-registered therewith. Optical imaging, ultrasound, angiography or other imaging modalities are used to generate the blood vessel data.

    Abstract: In part, the disclosure relates to shadow detection and shadow validation relative to data sets obtained from an intravascular imaging data collection session. The methods can use locally adaptive thresholds and scan line level analysis relative to candidate shadow regions to determine a set of candidate shadows for validation or rejection. In one embodiment, the shadows are stent strut shadows, guidewire shadows, side branch shadows or other shadows.
