Abstract
The disclosure relates to a device and a method for ascertaining at least one individual fluid-dynamic characteristic parameter of a stenosis in a vascular segment having a plurality of serial stenoses, wherein angiography image data of the vascular segment is received from an angiography recording device, geometry data of the vascular segment is ascertained by an analysis device based on the angiography image data and combined into a segment model. At least one division point located between two of the stenoses respectively is ascertained by a dividing device in the segment model, the segment model is subdivided into subsegment models at each of the at least one division points, and the respective fluid-dynamic characteristic parameter is ascertained by a simulation device for at least one of the subsegment models based on respective geometry data of the subsegment model.
