1. A system for controlling intravascular data acquisition, comprising:
a processor circuit configured to:
generate, using first extravascular image data of a vessel, a roadmap of the vessel;
identify a region of interest of the vessel on the roadmap of the vessel;
receive second extravascular image data representative of an intravascular data acquisition device positioned within the vessel;
determine, based on the second extravascular image data, whether the intravascular data acquisition device has entered the region of interest; and
in response to determining that the intravascular data acquisition device has entered the region of interest, control the intravascular data acquisition device to obtain intravascular data of the region of interest; and
output, to a display device in communication with the processor circuit, a first graphical representation of the intravascular data of the region of interest.
