A large number of clinically important and medically difficult decisions in diagnostic radiology involve interpreting the information derived from multiple imaging modalities. This is especially true in the assessment of heart disease, wherein at least two types of image information are generally required prior to deciding on the course of action: structural information describing coronary vessel anatomy and functional information related to heart muscle physiology. This paper will present and discuss the methods and results associated with a research program aimed at quantifying and visualizing the unified anatomic and physiologic information obtained from these complementary imaging modalities. The discussions will emphasize the reconstruction, processing, and visualization of three-dimensional cardiovascular structure, including the procedures and results obtained from phantom and patient studies.
诊断放射学中许多具有临床重要性且医学上颇具难度的决策都涉及对来自多种成像模态的信息进行解读。这在心脏病评估中尤为如此，在决定治疗方案之前，通常至少需要两种类型的图像信息：描述冠状动脉解剖结构的结构信息以及与心肌生理相关的功能信息。本文将展示并讨论一项研究计划的方法和结果，该计划旨在对从这些互补成像模态中获取的统一解剖和生理信息进行量化和可视化。讨论将重点关注三维心血管结构的重建、处理和可视化，包括从模型和患者研究中获得的程序和结果。
