    摘要: A method of displaying details of a coronary artery lesion in a cineangiogram, by adjusting each frame of the cineangiogram so that the lesion is continually displayed at a fixed location on a display. The remaining cardiac anatomy appears to move, in background, past a stationary arterial segment, thus making the displayed arterial segment easier to identify and to examine by medical personnel. Cineangiographic image frames are digitized and processed by a processor (201) and the image frames are digitally shifted to place the arterial segment in substantially the same viewing location in each frame. Sequential image frames may be presented to the viewer as a stereoscopic pair, to produce pseudostereopsis. The arterial segment appears to the viewer in foreground, as if it was floating in front of the remaining cardiac anatomy. Image frames may be further processed to aid examination by medical personnel. The processor may make quantitative measurements of the cineangiogram and may display results of those measurements to aid review of the cineangiogram. Frames may be averaged to reduce quantum noise and to blur any structure noise; frames may be compared with prior cineangiograms to increase clarity or contrast. Coordinate adjustments for a cineangiogram may help guide therapeutic procedures, or may help enhance other imaging procedures such as fluoroscopy.

    摘要: Sub-images are merged in order to form an assembled image representing an elongate scene. In order to counteract artifacts in the assembled image such as disturbing transitions at the boundaries of adjacent sub-images in the image assembly method in accordance with the invention, pixel-values of overlapping portions of consecutive sub-images are interpolated so as to form pixel-values of the assembled image. The relative shift between consecutive sub-images with respect to the elongate scene is calculated from image information contained in the sub-images themselves. Correlations of pixel-values in overlapping portions of consecutive sub-images are determined as a function of the shift-value of the shift between consecutive sub-images with respect to the elongate scene. The actual shift between consecutive sub-images is found as the shift-value for which the correlation attains its maximum-value.
    The image assembly method in accordance with the invention is particularly suitable for use in peripheral x-ray angiography. Consecutive sub-images are made by x-irradiations of e.g. a patient's leg with an x-ray imaging system comprising an x-ray source, an x-ray detector, in various positions relative to the patient.
    In order to induce a sufficient amount of contrast in the sub-images to enable the determination of the relative shift between consecutive sub-images the invention proposes to image a contrasting object together with the elongate scene itself. Preferably the contrasting object has the form of a ruler with a binary pattern which may be incorporated in the patient table.

    摘要: A radiation imaging method and system for use in various imaging techniques includes a source (12) of spatially-separate radiation beams (13,14) at first and second wavelengths (L1,L2) respectively. The radiation beams pass through an object (18) to be imaged and are detected by a target array of sensors arranged in addressable lines (21). Each beam separately scans across each line of sensors to produce first and second outputs which are combined to produce a combined image signal that has increased contrast from that which would be produced by either the first or the second output alone. Preferably, the array is an amorphous silicon array and mean is provided for synchronously clocking sensor data from the array.
