- catalog abstract "In the past, coronary arteriography was the only modality available to provide high quality images of the coronary anatomy. Quantitative coronary arteriography (QCA) was developed, implemented, validated and extensively applied to obtain accurate and reproducible data about coronary morphology and the functional significance of coronary obstructions. Over the last several years extensive basic technological research supported by clinical investigations has created ways to visualize the coronary morphology and the associated perfusion of the myocardial muscle by other competing modalities. Currently, the following modalities are available: x-ray coronary arteriography, intracoronary ultrasound, contrast- and stress-echocardiography, angioscopy, nuclear cardiology, magnetic resonance imaging, and cine and spiral CT imaging. For all these imaging modalities holds that the application of dedicated quantitative analytical software packages enables the evaluation of the imaging studies in a more accurate, reliable, and reproducible manner. These extensions and achievements have resulted in improved diagnostics and subsequently in improved patient care. Particularly in patients with ischemic heart disease, major progress has been made to detect coronary artery disease in an early phase of the disease process, to follow the atherosclerotic changes in the coronary arteries, to establish the functional and metabolic consequences of the luminal obstructions, and to accurately assess the results of interventional therapy. Aside from all these high-tech developments in cardiac imaging techniques, the transition from the analog to the digital world has been going on for some time now. For the future, it has been presaged that the CD-R will be the exchange medium for cardiac images and DICOM-3 the standard file format. This has been a major achievement in the field of standardization activities. Since these developments have and will have a major impact on the way images will be stored, reviewed and exchanged in the near future, an important part of the present book has been dedicated to DICOM and the filmless catheterization laboratory. Cardiovascular Imaging will assist the cardiologist, the radiologist, the nuclear medicine physician, the image processing specialist, physicist, basic scientist, and the fellow in training for those specialties, in understanding the most recent achievements in cardiac imaging techniques and their impact on cardiovascular medicine.".
