Abstract

In a method and apparatus for measuring a ratio of a variable for assessment in medical imaging data of a subject, a viewable image is generated from source imaging data of the subject. A pair of regions of interest for arrangement on the viewable image is then generated, and a value of the variable for each region of the pair from the source imaging data is determined. The ratio of the two values is then determined from the pair.
