Abstract
A method and system for estimating arterial compliance and resistance based on medical image data and pressure measurements is disclosed. An arterial inflow estimate over a plurality of time points is determined based on medical image data of a patient. An arterial pressure measurement of the patient is received. At least one cardiac cycle of the arterial pressure measurement is synchronized with at least one cardiac cycle of the arterial inflow measurement. Arterial compliance and resistance of the patient is estimated based on the arterial inflow estimate and the synchronized arterial pressure measurement.
