Abstract
Apparatus and methods are described for use with an endoluminal data-acquisition device configured to be moved through a lumen of a subject's body, and a two-dimensional angiographic image of the lumen. A value of a luminal-flow-related index of the subject is determined non-invasively at a plurality of locations along the lumen, at least partially by performing image processing on the angiographic image. While the endoluminal data-acquisition device is being moved through the lumen, a set of endoluminal data points of the lumen at a plurality of locations within the lumen is acquired, using the endoluminal data-acquisition device. It is determined that respective endoluminal data points correspond to respective locations along the lumen, and, in response thereto, it is determined that respective endoluminal data points correspond to respective values of the luminal flow-related index. Other applications are also described.
