Method for a three-dimensional representation of a moving structure

摘要

The invention relates to a method for three-dimensional representation of a moving structure by a tomographical method. Projection images are recorded by an image recording unit during a rotational run from recording angles between a start angle and an end angle, with a three-dimensional image data reconstructed from the projection images, with a first perfusion measurement with a first contrast agent injection and a first rotational run and with a further perfusion measurement with a further contrast agent injection and a further rotational run, which is started after the preceding perfusion measurement has concluded, with the start time and/or the start angle of the additional rotational run deviating from one another in respect of the time of the contrast agent injection. The method enables a functional three-dimensional time-resolved imaging of perfusion processes with the aid of flexible C-arm x-ray devices, which allow a functional imaging in an interventional environment.

1. A method for reconstructing a three-dimensional imaging data of a moving structure by a tomographical method, comprising:
recording a first perfusion measurement with a first contrast agent injection using a first sequence of rotational runs by an imaging recording unit; and recording a further perfusion measurement with a further contrast agent injection using a further sequence of rotational runs by the imaging recording unit; wherein the further perfusion measurement is started after completion of the first perfusion measurement, and a start time of the further sequence of rotational runs, relative to a time of the further injection, is deviated from a start time of the first sequence of rotational runs relative to a time of the first injection; and wherein the first and further sequences of rotational runs are uniformly spaced along a relative time line wherein the respective first and further injection times are overlaid on said relative time line.
