Abstract

A method includes storing three-dimensional image data acquired intravascularly via an optical coherence tomography (OCT) apparatus. The image data is analyzed to compute a probability estimate of stent presence at support positions appearing in an A-line. Stent strut locations are located in three-dimensional space based on the computed probability estimate of stent presence.
