  • Method and apparatus for automatic examination of cardiovascular functionality indexes by echographic imaging
    Publication number: 20060064016
    Abstract: A method for automatic examination of echographic images of the cardiovascular system, in particular, for computing functionality indexes of a segment of the cardiovascular system. Said method computes a succession of starting images (1), extracts a succession of images (4) synchronized with a cyclical movement (2) of the examined segment and measures cardiovascular functionality indexes (5) in the succession of synchronized images (4). The method, furthermore, describes the process for defining the edges of the examined structure starting from a starting ultrasonographic image in which the geometric features of the cardiovascular structure are known.
