A system includes memory storing a pre-defined stenosis characteristic to fractional flow reserve value look up table, a metric determiner () that maps at least one characteristic about a stenosis in a vessel of a patient, which is determined from image data of the stenosis, to a characteristic in the look up table and identifies a fractional flow reserve value corresponding to the characteristic, and a display () that visually presents the image data and the identified fractional flow reserve value.
