A modular, user-friendly computer simulation of NMR imaging was created for the DEC VAX computer. This simulation is novel in that complex imaging phenomena, such as chemical shifts and flow, may be easily studied. Other features include spin warp and backprojection imaging, movie generation, and si
The objective of this research was to determine whether a fast 3-dimensional (3-D) gradient echo magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) sequence could be used to acquire images suitable for image guided surgery of the spine. The main difficulty with MRI is that inhomogeneities in the static magnetic field
## Abstract Coronary artery disease (CAD) is currently the leading cause of death in developed nations. Reflecting the complexity of cardiac function and morphology, noninvasive diagnosis of CAD represents a major challenge for medical imaging. Although coronary artery stenoses can be depicted with
