Abstract
The authors developed a postprocessing technique, eigenimage filtering, to extract phase-dependent information from digital subtraction angiograms of the heart. This technique suppresses the interference from the right ventricle and left atrium and produces an image of the left ventricle and aorta that is substantially free of these overlap artifacts. The resultant eigenimages of the heart appear more like conventional ventriculograms than do digital subtraction angiograms and matched filtered images.This publication has 5 references indexed in Scilit:
