摘要
Multisector reconstruction is a newly developed algorithm for multirow detector CT in cardiac study. Using volume data sets obtained by ECG-gated scanning, we can reconstruct cardiac images at any desired phase of the cardiac cycle retrospectively. In retro-processing multiplanar and three-dimensional images, thin-slice images with overlapping increment have a great advantage due to increasing z-axis resolution. In this article, we present principles of the algorithm, a phantom study, clinical applications and perspectives for the future. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
