    摘要: Certain embodiments of the present invention provide methods and systems for calibrating a pixel spacing attribute value for X-ray mammography imaging based on a patient-specific breast thickness value. Certain embodiments provide a method for patient specific pixel spacing calibration for mammography X-ray imaging. The method includes determining a patient specific breast thickness value for a particular patient being imaged by a mammography X-ray device having a radiation source and a detector and an associated imager pixel spacing value. The method also includes calibrating a pixel spacing attribute for a mammography X-ray image based on the patient specific breast thickness value, a radiation source to detector distance in the mammography X-ray device, and the image pixel spacing value.

    摘要: An intravascular balloon catheter includes a tubular catheter body having a balloon structure removably mounted over the catheter body. The catheter body has a guidewire lumen, and the catheter body may be left in place within a patient's vasculature while the balloon structure is withdrawn and optionally a second balloon structure introduced over the catheter body. The catheter and methods of the present invention are particularly suitable for performing angioplasty and subsequent procedures, such as stent placement, which are best performed using successive interventional balloon structures.
