X-ray velocimetry in dynamic imaging: a systematic overview of approaches

X-ray velocimetry (XV) is a novel imaging technique that allows for real-time viewing and dynamic analysis of air and blood flow. Traditional imaging techniques frequently cannot capture high-resolution, real-time flow patterns, which limits their diagnostic utility. This evaluation assesses the efficacy and dependability of XV compared to traditional imaging techniques. Our principal aim was to conduct a systematic review of studies that compare the accuracy of dynamic flow measurements of XV in comparison to existing imaging methods. A systematic review was conducted according to PRISMA criteria. Fourteen papers from indexed journals, including ScienceDirect and PubMed, were examined to determine the benefits of XV for capturing dynamic flow patterns. The data show that XV outperforms traditional imaging techniques by providing higher spatial and temporal resolution, allowing for exact tracking of airflow and blood flow dynamics. These enhanced visuals help to improve diagnosis accuracy and comprehension of physiological processes. XV is a significant improvement in medical imaging, providing real-time, high-resolution insights that help with patient evaluation and clinical decision-making. Its application may improve diagnostic capabilities and patient outcomes in pulmonary and vascular examinations.
