Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention belongs to the field of medical imaging (medical imaging technology-ultrasound medical imaging), and particularly relates to a method for jointly displaying multiple coronary artery images including echocardiography. Background technique
[0002] Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) has the advantages of non-invasiveness, simple operation, low cost, and can provide a large amount of anatomical and hemodynamic information, and plays an important role in the diagnosis of coronary heart disease and its prognosis . In 1976, Weyman et al. first used two-dimensional echocardiography to display the main trunks of the right and left coronary arteries, and combined with coronary artery anatomy, described the characteristics of two-dimensional ultrasound images of the initial segments of the left and right coronary arteries. With the continuous development of TTE technology, TTE has become an important means of diagnosing coronary heart disease an...
