Panoramic Coronary Angiography
We describe a new imaging technique for coronary angiography.The conventional approach to coronary angiography exploits static perspective imaging over multiple cardiac cycles, using a limited number of empirically selected views. This approach entails both lack and redundancy of information and may result in suboptimal visualization of the individual ...

The introduction of selective coronary angiography by Mason Sones in 1958 stands as a milestone in clinical cardiology. The procedure continues as a cornerstone in the evaluation of the coronary arteries and is indicated not only to diagnose coronary artery disease (CAD) but also to assess its severity.
