Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for assessing the presence of functionally significant stenosis in one or more coronary arteries, further known as a severity of vessel obstruction. The methods and systems can implement a prediction phase that comprises segmenting at least a portion of a contrast enhanced volume image data set into data segments corresponding to wall regions of the target organ, and analyzing the data segments to extract features that are indicative of an amount of perfusion experiences by wall regions of the target organ. The methods and systems can obtain a feature-perfusion classification (FPC) model derived from a training set of perfused organs, classify the data segments based on the features extracted and based on the FPC model, and provide, as an output, a prediction indicative of a severity of vessel obstruction based on the classification of the features.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging method involves acquisition of sets of magnetic resonance signals from several scan-volumes of an object. According to the invention different spatial approaches are taken in the scanning of the respective scan-volumes. In particular_respective scan-volumes include different numbers of scan-slices or scan slices of respective scan-volumes have different slice-thickness or scan-slices of respective scan-volumes have different fields-of-view or scan-slices of respective scan-volumes have different numbers of scanned points in k-space.
