Abstract :
3D reconstruction of arterial vessels from planar radiographs obtained form multitude of angles around the object has gained increasing interest. The motivating application has been interventional angiography. In these procedures data acquisition, visualization, decision making, and the action are all incorporated in one loop that is time critical. This project encompasses an entire workflow; from system calibration, data acquisition, and image reconstruction, to the effective presentation of the results for the right action
