Abstract

A computer-implemented method of measuring a blood flow parameter in a vasculature, is provided. The method includes: analyzing spectral CT projection data to isolate from the spectral CT projection data, contrast agent projection data representing the flow of the injected contrast agent; sampling the contrast agent projection data at one or more regions of interest in the vasculature to provide temporal blood flow data at the one or more regions of interest; and calculating, from the temporal blood flow data, a value of one or more blood flow parameters at the one or more regions of interest.
