Fusion of Multi-modal Sequences
for Image Guided Cardiac Interventions


The quality of cardiac image sequences is often a compromise between spatial and temporal resolutions. The fusion of high spatial cues (e.g. from CT or MR) with high temporal cues (e.g. from fluoroscopy) will bring sequences of high spatio-temporal resolution to cardiac interventions. This will be solved with a mathematical framework unifying 4D segmentation and registration.
