Three Dimensional CT Angiography (Sandy Napel, Principal Investigator):

Starting in 1992, we began investigations as to whether and how newly developed CT scanners could be combined with 3D visualization techniques to allow fully 3D vascular assessment in a less invasive manner than conventional angiography. Ideas and methods first developed here are now in routine use around the world delivering nearly isotropic submillimeter resolution over large vascular territories. We continue to develop new segmentation and visualization methods for specific clinical applications.
