4D imaging technology

Scientists from Wincos University have successfully developed a new imaging technology called PCVIR, which allows MRI imaging of 4D images.

Cardiovascular diseases are the "number one killer" in many countries. About 5 million Americans suffer from heart disease, and over 300,000 die every year.

Today's imaging technology only allows for 20 to 30 transplants in 90 minutes. At the same time, observation is usually 2D.

Therefore, the medical focus is on the development of diagnostic technology, detection of abnormalities, to provide timely preventive measures.

New technology from Wincosin University allows 3D visualization of the heart, while seeing the flow of blood, direction, velocity.

The new method does not require general anesthesia and allows the patient to clearly see the risk of the cardiovascular problem visually.

The snapshot process gives the doctor clear images of the blood flow in different places, in the heart and arteries, in the veins.

The blood vessels that pass through the heart are indicated by different color codes: blue represents blood rest, red and yellow indicate abnormally fast blood flow in patients with heart problems.

4D shows vascular, flow, velocity, and distinct differences in healthy volunteers compared to patients with cardiovascular problems.

Here, the location of the blood stream is described along with the effect of obstruction or deviation in the blood vessels. Scientists hope that the new technology will help them get an in-depth analysis and early detection of aneurysm. If detected early, patients with heart problems have higher treatment prospects.

New imaging technology is being studied by researchers at the School of Public Health and Health (Wincosin University). The team said the new technology will appear in hospitals in the next 3-4 years. A similar study of the 4D image of the brain is also underway.
