Research, Development and Evaluation of Minimally Invasive Systems for Detection and Quantification of Atherosclerotic Lesions in Coronary Arteries of Humans

摘要

The Dynamic Spatial Reconstructor, a high speed x-ray computed tomography scanner, is now having its 14 x-ray imaging cameras replaced with the new cameras developed under the auspices of this contract. Over the past year, the various electro-optical components were received from the manufacturers. At present, the authors have seven new image chains operational on the DSR, and they expect to have all 14 image chains operational on the DSR by late October 1987.
