Abstract: A holographic augmented reality ultrasound needle guide system and method includes an augmented reality display such as a headset wearable by a user. The augmented reality display is configured to depict a virtual ultrasound image. The augmented reality display is further configured to allow a user to select a desired reference point on the virtual ultrasound image. The system is configured to depict a holographic needle guide based on the selection of the desired reference point. The system is also configured to adjust a trajectory of the holographic needle guide to avoid intersecting undesired anatomical structures. The augmented reality display is further configured to stamp the holographic needle guide into a selectively locked trajectory and position.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for identifying anatomically relevant blood flow characteristics in a patient. One method includes: receiving, in an electronic storage medium, a patient-specific representation of at least a portion of vasculature of the patient having a lesion at one or more points; receiving values for one or more metrics of interest associated with one or more locations in the vasculature of the patient; receiving one or more observed lumen measurements of the vasculature of the patient; determining the location of a diseased region in the vasculature of the patient using the received values for the one or more metrics of interest, wherein the determination of the location includes predicting or receiving one or more healthy lumen measurements of the vasculature of the patient; determining the extent of the diseased region; and generating a visualization of at least the diseased region.
