Publication number: 20230108647Abstract: A method and apparatus for calculating the blood flow rate in a coronary artery, an electronic device and a storage medium. The method for calculating the blood flow rate in a coronary artery comprises the following steps: S1, acquiring an angiography image of the coronary artery, segmenting the angiography image of the coronary artery by using deep learning, and obtaining segmented images of a main vessel (S1); S2, calculating the length of the main vessel in each segmented image frame on the basis of the segmented images of the main vessel (S2); and S3, obtaining the blood flow rate in the main vessel on the basis of the calculated change of the lengths of the main vessel with time (S3). By using the method and apparatus for calculating the blood flow rate in a coronary artery and the electronic device, the automation of the calculation of the blood flow rate in a coronary artery is achieved, the calculated blood flow rate in the coronary artery is more accurate, and the calculation method is simple.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 22, 2021Publication date: April 6, 2023Inventors: Shengxian Tu, Qiuyang Zhao, Juan Luis Gutiérrez-Chico, Shuzhan Chen
