Popis: Medical imaging has moved into an era of digital files and processing of images to yield three-dimensional models and reconstructions. This development has opened up opportunities to apply computer techniques in traditional imaging tasks. Two of the most common imaging tasks are those to correct the two-dimensional projection problems of foreshortening of lesions and of vessel overlap. This article explores the use of computers to assist in these tasks, to create databases for guiding decision making, to provide graphics to assist the physician, and to simulate cardiovascular procedures.
