ABSTRACT:
A minimally invasive technique for obtaining X-ray images of the anatomical vasculature of a living patient includes intravenously injecting the patient with an X-ray contrast medium, obtaining video X-ray images of the vasculature in a region of the patient's body at a high frame rate to avoid significant blurring of the images caused by tissue and bone movement in the region, converting the video X-ray images to digital image data, transferring the image data in real time to a bulk memory by way of a FASTBUS system, transferring the image data from the bulk memory to a computer via the FASTBUS system at a rate commensurate with the capacity of the computer to receive such data, and utilizing the computer to effect image enhancement processing of the data for subsequent viewing.
