Abstract
The disclosure provides a method and system for determining a lumen volume of a target blood vessel. The method may include acquiring a temporal sequence of angiography images of the target blood vessel after a contract agent is injected in the target blood vessel. The method may further include identifying a region of interest containing the target blood vessel, by a processor, in each angiography image in the temporal sequence of angiography images. The method may also include integrating, by the processor, pixel values in each region of interest, and determining the lumen volume, by the processor, based on the integrated values of the regions of interest and a predetermined correlation between the integrated values and volumes of the contrast agent.
