Abstract
Techniques for processing one or more frames of an angiogram are disclosed. The processing may take place during or after an angiography exam. The one or more frames of the angiogram are acquired during the angiography exam. The one or more frames are processed to determine, based on at least one pre-defined criterion, whether the angiogram at least comprises one frame with a diagnostic value among the one or more frames. If the angiogram comprises at least one frame with the diagnostic value, based on the angiogram, a score quantifying the diagnostic value of the angiogram is determined using a trained machine-learning (ML) algorithm. Techniques for processing, e.g., ranking/sorting, multiple angiograms associated with an anatomical region of interest of a patient are also provided, by which a respective score for each of the multiple angiograms is determined using the techniques for processing one or more frames of an angiogram.
