Abstract
A method for supporting an evaluator in evaluation of a CT data set of a vascular system is provided. The vascular system is segmented, and an evaluation parameters are determined from the segmentation. An abstracted representation of the vascular system up to the limit generation is displayed, where each vascular segment is allocated at least one display element of a predefined minimum size that is the same for all vascular segments. Display elements of a path from the vascular segment of the zeroth generation to a vascular segment of the limit generation are represented in a first direction of the representation in succession, and display elements of the same generation allocated to different paths follow one another in a second direction transverse thereto. Each display element allocated to a vascular segment is represented in a type of representation corresponding to the value of the evaluation parameter for the vascular segment.
