Abstract

This work consists of the presentation of two methods of quantitative coronary angiography: the first is simple to implement, cheap and offers a routine method for a more precise evaluation of stenoses than simple visual estimation. The second is more interesting if one wishes to measure the diameter of coronaries and attain a satisfactory degree of precision compared to semi-automatic methods using image digitalisation.
