    摘要: A system and method of obtaining perfusion data for cerebral tissue is described. The system includes a C-arm X-ray device and a computing system configured to obtain sets of rotational projection X-ray data suitable for reconstructing 3D voxel data sets. A first data set is obtained of the patient, and then contrast material is injected into the vascular system to obtain a second 1 data set. A first voxel data set is subtracted from the second voxel data set, and the resultant data set is processed so as to segment the contrast-enhanced vasculature from the remaining data. The segmented voxels are subtracted from the resultant voxel data set, so as to yield a functional data set representing the difference between the attenuation of the tissues after administering contrast agent and the tissues prior to administering the contrast agent, without the contrast enhanced vasculature. The attenuation of the functional data set represents the perfusion or cerebral blood volume (CBV).

    摘要: A determination method for reinitialization of a temporal sequence of fluoroscopic images of an examination region of an examination object is provided. The examination region comprises a vascular system including arteries and/or veins. An acquisition time is assigned to each of the images representing a given distribution of a substance in the examination region at the acquisition time. A computer receives the temporal sequence of the images, determines an evaluation image corresponding spatially on a pixel-by-pixel basis to the images, and calculates a differential value between a pixel of the evaluation image at a time and a pixel at a preceding time during a time characteristic of the sequence. A reinitialization of the temporal sequence of the images is performed at a specific time and thereafter the determination method is started over and/or repeated. The specific time is determined as a function of at least one previously calculated differential value.

    摘要: A method for computing a color-coded analysis image of an examination area of an examination object from a temporal sequence of fluoroscopic images of the examination area comprising a vascular system containing arteries and/or veins is provided. An acquisition time instant has been assigned to each of the fluoroscopic images representing a given distribution of a material embolizing some of the vascular system. The fluoroscopic image spatially corresponds to an analysis image pixel by pixel. A computer receives the fluoroscopic images with a color attribute assigned to each pixel of the analysis image at an image point and a time instant. If a pixel differs from a pixel at a preceding time instant, the color attribute assumes a color attribute of the time instant and the difference. If a pixel corresponds to a background color of the analysis image, the color attribute assumes a background color.

    摘要: A workflow for a minimally invasive intervention, such as a treatment for a cancerous tumor, includes positioning a patient at a multi-functional imaging apparatus, obtaining pre-interventional images of the anatomy of the patient using a computed tomography or angiography imaging function, performing the minimally invasive intervention while the patient is positioned at the multi-functional imaging apparatus and while using a fluoroscopic imaging function, and performing a post-interventional imaging of the patient's anatomy while the patient is positioned at the multi-functional imaging apparatus using the computed tomography or angiographic imaging function. If the post-interventional imaging determines that additional intervention is in order, the additional intervention is performed while the patient is positioned at the imaging apparatus. Pre-intervention images and data sets from other sources may be combined with or used during the intervention. A treatment planning step may be included following the pre-interventional imaging and the intervention.

    摘要: A computer receives a temporal sequence of x-ray images of an examination region of an examination object. The examination region includes a blood vessel system and tissue supplied with blood. A detection time is assigned in each instance to the x-ray images. The x-ray images correspond locally with one another in terms of pixels and each display a distribution of a contrast agent in the examination region at the respective detection time. The computer determines the temporal course of the temporal derivation of the data values and/or of the average value of the data values of the pixels located in the evaluation region for at least one evaluation region which is standard for all x-ray images. It assigns a type to the evaluation region as a function hereof.

    摘要: A method for operating an x-ray device, (e.g., a fluoroscope), is described herein. The method includes: creating planning information for a therapeutic intervention into a body vessel segment based on a reconstruction of the body vessel segment; providing the planning information to a processing unit of the x-ray device; providing the reconstruction of the body vessel segment to the processing unit; creating a recording of the body vessel segment introduced into a recording region of the x-ray device; registering the reconstruction of the body vessel segment with the body vessel segment in the recording region of the x-ray device; displaying the recording of the body vessel segment on a display device of the x-ray device; and superimposing a graphical representation of the planning information on the recording displayed on the display device, in order to increase the efficiency of the therapeutic intervention into the body vessel segment.
