  • Title: Separated flow demonstrated by digitized cineangiography compared with LDV.
    Author: Smedby O, Fuchs L, Tillmark N.
    Journal: J Biomech Eng; 1991 Aug; 113(3):336-41. PubMed ID: 1921361.
    Abstract:
    In order to demonstrate separated flow in vivo, a method for the computerized analysis of cineangiographies has been developed, tested in vitro, and compared with LDV. A pulsatile flow was created in a glass model bifurcation, and velocity profiles were obtained with LDV at several phase angles. The flow was cinefilmed during contrast injection and the images were digitized. The computer then transformed the image sequence into parametric images representing arrival times of the contrast. The separation regions demonstrated with LDV were identified as areas with delayed contrast arrival. A preliminary analysis of a cineangiography in vivo is also included.
