Product Description
Recent, rapid advances in mathematical engineering and applied mathematics have opened the door to solving complex problems in angiography imaging. For the first time, this book presents the different medical imaging modalities - MR, CT, x-ray, and ultrasound - for performing angiography and its analysis. Pioneers from a variety of relevant disciplines address state-of-the-art issues related to angiography, pre- and post angiography imaging, and their applications, such as intravascular ultrasound and x-ray fusion, plaque imaging, and morphology analysis. Their presentations cover most of the segmentation algorithms for anatomic blood vessels of the body, such as the brain, aorta, and retina. The art of angiography imaging has penetrated several fields of medicine, such as ophthalmology, neurology, cardiology, and pulmonary medicine. Angiography and Plaque Imaging: Advanced Segmentation Techniques presents current information beneficial to all researchers and physicians interested in the effective diagnosis and treatment of various vascular diseases.
