Imaging Studies VII: Vascular Imaging

474
DefinitionRenal angiography, also known as renal arteriography, is an imaging technique used to obtain a comprehensive view of blood flow and the vascular structure of blood vessels in the kidneys and surrounding areas.PurposeRenal angiography detects blood vessel abnormalities in the kidneys, such as aneurysms, stenosis, thrombosis, vascular tumors, and renal artery stenosis. It evaluates kidney function and guides interventional treatments like angioplasty or stent placement.Pre-Procedure...

Tomography refers to imaging by sections. Computed tomography (CT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that uses computers to analyze several cross-sectional X-rays to reveal minute details about structures in the body.
The technique was invented in the 1970s and is based on the principle that as X-rays pass through the body, they are absorbed or reflected at different levels. In the technique, a patient lies on a motorized platform while a computerized axial tomography (CAT) scanner rotates...

578
Cardiac computed tomography (CT) scanning is an advanced cardiac imaging technique that utilizes CT technology, with or without intravenous (IV) contrast, to produce accurate cross-sectional virtual slices of specific areas of the heart, coronary circulation, and major blood vessels such as the aorta, pulmonary veins, and arteries. The computer processes these slices to generate three-dimensional images. Multidetector CT (MDCT) is a rapid form of CT scanning that captures multiple slices...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System III: X-Ray

661
The most common cardiovascular diagnostic test is an X-ray. It produces images of the heart, blood vessels, and adjacent structures.
Definition and Purpose
An X-ray, or radiograph, is a non-invasive method that uses ionizing radiation to take images of internal structures. It is mainly used in cardiac imaging to examine the heart, lungs, and major blood vessels, aiming to identify abnormalities in the heart's size, shape, and position, such as heart failure, congenital defects, and vascular...

Imaging Studies for Cardiovascular System IV: CMRI

539
Cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging, or CMRI, is a non-invasive diagnostic test that employs a magnetic field and radiofrequency waves to create precise images of the heart and arteries. It provides comprehensive information about cardiac anatomy, function, perfusion, and tissue characterization without ionizing radiation.IndicationsCMRI diagnoses various heart conditions, including tissue damage from heart attacks, ischemic heart disease, myocarditis, aortic issues (tears, aneurysms,...

Area of Science:

  • Ophthalmology
  • Medical Imaging
  • Biomedical Engineering

Background:

  • Retinal vasculature and structural abnormalities are typically analyzed separately.
  • Optical coherence tomography (OCT) provides detailed structural and flow information.
  • Current visualization methods limit the understanding of disease interrelationships.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To demonstrate combined and integrated volume rendering of retinal vasculature and structural abnormalities.
  • To develop a novel visualization technique for retinal diseases.
  • To enhance the investigation of vascular and structural interrelationships in the retina and choroid.

Main Methods:

  • Eyes were scanned using OCT with split-spectrum amplitude-decorrelation techniques for flow information.
  • Structural OCT data, including edema fluid and lipid deposits, were segmented.
  • Angiographic and structural data were integrated plane-by-plane for volume rendering.
  • Combined data allowed for multi-axial rotation and evaluation.

Main Results:

  • Representative images from various retinal diseases (diabetic macular edema, macular telangiectasis, choroidal neovascularization, retinal veno-occlusive disease) were generated.
  • The interrelationships between cystoid fluid and intraretinal lipid accumulation were visualized.
  • Integrated volume rendering successfully depicted combined vascular and structural findings.

Conclusions:

  • Structural and angiographic findings can be integrated into a single dataset for volume rendering.
  • This novel technique facilitates the investigation of the interplay between vascular and structural abnormalities.
  • The combined visualization aids in understanding complex retinal and choroidal pathologies.
