This invention describes a system that helps doctors analyze blood vessels, particularly for procedures like placing stents. It works by combining two types of medical images: an X-ray image of the blood vessel and a detailed internal image taken from inside the vessel. The system then processes these combined images to assess the vessel's condition, determine if a procedure is needed, and potentially guide or evaluate that procedure, specifically focusing on blood vessels.
Why it matters: Since 2020, deep learning models have significantly advanced multi-modal image registration (G06T7/33), which is central to combining the angiography and intravascular images. This progress could make the system's image alignment more accurate and efficient, enabling more robust real-time clinical application.
