Reason
When performing post processing with the Brilliance Workspace Portal Platform with Software Version 2.6.1.4, the coronary arteries in the rendered image are segmented automatically. However, the centre line is not extracted or highlighted upon hovering and making it impossible to activate the vessel and choose the appropriate name (label) from the drop-down menu. As a result the operator has to manually extract the relevant vessel using the centerline extraction tools. Once extracted, it will allow the user to view and label the coronary artery.
