Abstract:Since the lung is an organ whose real movement has never been seen, as it is totally dependent on the rib cage and collapses without them, the objective of the present work is to develop a method to study its movement. The visualization of the lung in motion is an actual topic of research in medicine. Computerized Tomography (CT) can obtain spatiotemporal images of the heart by synchronizing with electrocardiographic waves. The field of view (FOV) of the heart is small when compared to the lung's FOV. The lung… Show more
