Abstract

The disclosure relates to systems and methods for evaluating a blood vessel. The method includes receiving image data of the blood vessel acquired by an image acquisition device, and predicting, by a processor, blood vessel condition parameters of the blood vessel by applying a deep learning model to the acquired image data of the blood vessel. The deep learning model maps a sequence of image patches on the blood vessel to blood vessel condition parameters on the blood vessel, where in the mapping the entire sequence of image patches contribute to the blood vessel condition parameters. The method further includes providing the blood vessel condition parameters of the blood vessel for evaluating the blood vessel.
