Multimodality 3D image fusion with live fluoroscopy reduces radiation dose during catheterization of congenital heart defects Ghent University
Introduction: Imaging fusion technology is promising as it is radiation and contrast sparing. Herein, we compare conventional biplane angiography to multimodality image fusion with live fluoroscopy using two-dimensional (2D)–three-dimensional (3D) registration (MMIF2D−3D) and assess MMIF2D−3D impact on radiation exposure and contrast volume during cardiac catheterization of patients with congenital heart disease (CHD). Methods: We matched ...
