Abstract

An apparatus for assessing a vessel of interest and a corresponding method are provided in which the modeling of the hemodynamic parameters using a fluid dynamics model can be verified by deriving feature values from the segmented vessel of interest and inputting these feature values into a classifier. The classifier may then determine, based on the feature values whether the segmentation has been performed from proximal to distal, from distal to proximal or cannot be determined from the provided data. An incorrect segmentation order can thus be identified and potentially be corrected, thereby avoiding inaccurate simulation results.
