Method and apparatus for providing a quantitative volumetric map of an organ or an assessment of organ health

A method of providing a quantitative volumetric assessment of organ health, the method comprising:

• obtaining a volumetric map of organ health comprising information defining a state of tissue health across at least part of an organ;
• receiving an input defining at least one organ section;
• determining an assessment organ volume, based at least partly on the at least one defined organ section;
• calculating an organ-viability measure for the assessment organ volume, based at least partly on information within the volumetric map defining the state of tissue health across the organ volume;
• and
• outputting an indication of the organ-viability measure.

A method of providing a quantitative volumetric map of an organ, the method comprising:

• obtaining a volumetric map of an organ, the volumetric map comprising information defining a state of tissue across at least part of an organ;
• receiving an input defining at least one organ section;
• determining an assessment organ volume, based at least partly on the at least one defined organ section;
• calculating a measure of the state of the assessment organ volume, based at least partly on information within the input volumetric map defining the state of the tissue across the organ volume;
• and
• outputting an indication of the measure of the state of the assessment organ volume.

• receiving an input defining at least one organ section;
• determining an assessment organ volume, based at least partly on the at least one defined organ section;
• calculating an organ-viability measure for the assessment organ volume, based at least partly on information within the volumetric map defining the state of tissue health across the organ volume;
• and
• outputting an indication of the organ-viability measure.
