title: 1978 memorial award paper: a computer-aided technique for overlaying cerebral angiograms onto computed tomograms.
abstract: We have developed a method which uses a digital computer to combine angiographic images of the cerebral vasculature with a computed tomogram of the brain. The procedure is simple and could be implemented in any radiology department equipped with both a CT scanner and a bi-plane angiography suite. We have performed the entire process in prototype on phantoms and on a patient and have produced images that appear accurate and informative.
