Abstract

A planning method for defining a placement position of a stent in an abdominal aorta of a subject is described. An abdominal aortic aneurysm portion of the abdominal aorta has an aneurysm sac and an aneurysm neck, a distal end of the aneurysm neck, a lower renal aortic ostium, a first distance between a distal end of the lower renal aortic ostium and the distal end of the aneurysm neck, and a second distance between a proximal end of the lower renal aortic ostium and the distal end of the aneurysm neck are identified in image data. The first distance is compared with a minimum stent length. A stent placement position is defined based on a selected stent length such that a distal end of the stent is aligned with the distal end of the aneurysm neck.
