For at least two decades coronary cine-angiograms have been reviewed on film projectors. The cardiologist most often reviews the multiple two-dimensional projections of the coronary arterial tree on a screen, and then mentally create a three-dimensional (3-D) model of the patient's arteries. The ability to synthesize this data and grasp the three-dimensionality of a patient's specific anatomy is quite difficult and requires extensive training and experience to perfect. Fortunately, with advances in computer hardware and software, cardiologists, with all levels of experience, will have assistance with this difficult task. It is now possible, with the use of computers, to reconstruct and display a patient's coronary angiogram in 3-D, allowing the cardiologist to review this data in ways not previously available. In the near future, enhancements in the technique will allow this technology to be placed on-line, directly in the cardiac catheterization laboratory, greatly facilitating the ability to diagnose abnormalities and more appropriately plan treatment strategies.
至少二十年来,冠状动脉造影影片一直在电影放映机上进行查看。心脏病专家最常通过屏幕查看冠状动脉树的多个二维投影,然后在脑海中构建患者动脉的三维(3-D)模型。综合这些数据并掌握患者特定解剖结构的三维特征非常困难,需要大量培训和经验才能做到完美。幸运的是,随着计算机硬件和软件的进步,各级经验的心脏病专家在这项艰巨任务中将得到帮助。现在,利用计算机可以重建并以三维方式显示患者的冠状动脉造影,使心脏病专家能够以前所未有的方式查看这些数据。在不久的将来,该技术的改进将使这项技术能够在线放置,直接在心脏导管实验室中使用,极大地有助于诊断异常情况并更合理地制定治疗策略。
