Abstract
Systems, devices, and methods for controlling intravascular data acquisition are provided. For example, a co-registration process can be used to control the start and/or stop of intravascular data acquisition. In one embodiment, a system includes a processor circuit configured to generate a roadmap of the vessel, identify a region of interest of the vessel on the roadmap, determine whether the intravascular data acquisition device has entered the region of interest, and control the intravascular data acquisition device to obtain intravascular data of the region of interest. The processor can then output, to a display device, a graphical representation of the intravascular data of the region of interest.
