Abstract
A computer-implemented method is for evaluating a CT data set of a coronary region of a patient regarding perivascular tissue of at least one target blood vessel. In an embodiment, the computer-implemented method automatically determines a centerline of at least the at least one target blood vessel in the CT data set; defines a region of interest as including at least one defined outer region radius around an extension interval of the centerline, the outer region radius being relatively larger than a radius of the at least one target blood vessel; and calculates at least one quantitative value from CT data in the region of interest.
