Background: Electron beam computed tomography (EBCT) and multislice computed tomography (MSCT) are both suitable for non-invasive identification of coronary stenoses. Objective: To compare intravenous ...

As this invasive procedure is costly and is not without risk, an alternative non-invasive technique would be of great benefit. 1–,4 To date, promising attempts have been made to visualise the coronary ...

Electron-beam computed tomography (EBCT)–based indicator dilution techniques have been shown to provide minimally invasive quantitative indices of the functional status of the coronary ...

Geometric calibration is a critical component in cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT), ensuring that the spatial relationships between the X‐ray source, detector and the object are accurately ...

Working with physicians at the Women and Children's Hospital of Buffalo, CCR has developed a medical data visualization system that can be used for surgical planning and general patient education.

The last time we used a scanning electron microscope (a SEM), it looked like something from a bad 1950s science fiction movie. These days SEMs, like the one at the IBM research center, look like ...

Objective: The superimposition of cone-beam computed tomography (CBCT) images is an essential step to evaluate shape variations of pre and postorthodontic operations due to pose variations and the ...

CT is short for “computed tomography.” The images provide more detailed information than typical X-ray images. They can show the soft tissues, blood vessels, and bones in various parts of the ...

HealthDay News — Computed tomography colonography (CTC) is cost-effective and clinically effective for colorectal cancer (CRC) screening, according to a study published online June 10 in Radiology.
