Abstract

We report on the enhancement of video-angiocardiographic image-series by digital preprocessing methods including a newly developed technique of interframe subtraction recording as well as computerized image subtraction, integration, and nonlinear representation techniques. Background suppression and noise reduction obtained through these processes applied to roentgen images from animal experiments are demonstrated. Image-series handling and storage are simplified by combining a new method of digitally formatted videotape recording with conventional digital storage of selected image data in the periphery of a minicomputer system.
