    摘要: A diagnostic imaging system and process permits construction of an image of an area of an interfacial surface within the body of a subject, such as the heart-lung interface. The imaging system includes radiation source means for generating a shaped beam of penetrating radiation for illuminating the interfacial surface. Radiation scattered from tissue at the interface is detected by a plurality of directional radiation detectors which can be automatically positioned and oriented so that their fields of view intersect the beam of radiation and the interfacial surface.

    摘要: A narrow x-ray beam is scanned through the chest cavity of a subject to create a scattered radiation signal. The scattered radiation signal is used to construct a tomographic image of the contents of the subject's chest cavity on a display screen. A crosshair on the display screen is used to mark the location of a bypass graft in the image. A computer senses the position of the crosshair and subsequently positions a fluorescence detector over the subject to interrogate the location of the bypass graft within the chest cavity. A tracer material injected into the subject fluoresces as it passes through the irradiated bypass graft. The resulting fluorescence transient is recorded and provides a measure of graft patency and flow characteristics.
