Abstract
Biplane coronary angiography and intravascular ultrasound are complementary methods to assess coronary artery disease. The first one delivers accurate information about the vessel topology and shape, but only restricted data concerning the vessel cross-section. The latter one provides detailed information about the shape and composition of vessel wall and plaque, but fails to consider the geometrical relationships between adjacent images. Thus, a combination of both methods enables judgement of both the longitudinal and cross-sectional geometry of the coronary arteries. In this paper, we present an accurate method for fusion of biplane angiography and intracoronary ultrasound.
