Although computer-based simulations, such as structural finite element analysis, have proven their usefulness to support procedural planning of coronary stenting, the link between the clinical practice and these engineering techniques is still limited to research test-cases. A key point to further promote such an interaction is to generate in a fast and effective manner the computational grids from the medical images. Hence, the present study proposes a simple framework to generate 3D meshes of coronary bifurcations from a pair of planar angiographic images obtained by X-ray angiography, which is the gold standard technique for the diagnosis of coronary artery stenosis.
虽然基于计算机的模拟,如结构有限元分析,已经证明对支持冠状动脉支架置入术的程序规划很有用,但临床实践与这些工程技术之间的联系仍然仅限于研究案例。进一步促进这种互动的一个关键点是从医学图像中快速有效地生成计算网格。因此,本研究提出了一种简单的框架,从 X 射线血管造影获得的一对平面血管造影图像中生成冠状动脉分叉的 3D 网格,这是诊断冠状动脉狭窄的金标准技术。
