Computer implemented method for estimating lung perfusion from thoracic computed tomography images

The present invention relates to a computer implemented method for estimating lung perfusion from CT images, comprising the steps of: providing a CT image of at least a part of the lung, in particular a CT scan taken at inspiration, and more in particular a non-contrast CT scan taken at inspiration; providing the CT image to a trained computer implemented algorithm to estimate lung perfusion based on the CT image, wherein the trained computer implemented algorithm is trained by providing a set of CT images from at least a part of the lung, in particular a CT scan taken at inspiration, and more in particular a non-contrast CT scan taken at inspiration; providing perfusion information corresponding to the CT image; and training the computer implemented algorithm to learn to estimate perfusion in a CT image based on the reference perfusion information provided during training..
