Abstract
A system and method for providing an image capable of realizing conversion of a 3D tissue structure into which an implant is inserted into a 2D image using a contour technique are provided. The system for providing an image includes an imaging unit configured to photograph an inner part of a blood vessel into which an implant is inserted to provide a plurality of tomographic images, a first analysis unit configured to analyze the plurality of tomographic images to generate data on strut distribution of the stent, a second analysis unit configured to analyze the plurality of tomographic images to generate data on a thickness of a neointima, a first image generation unit configured to generate a strut distribution chart of a 2D image using the data on the strut distribution, a second image generation unit configured to generate a contour map for the thickness of the neointima using the data on the thickness of the neointima, and a composition unit configured to composite the strut distribution chart and the contour map.
