The imaging of moving organs such as the heart, in particular,
is a real challenge because of its movement. This book presents
current and emerging methods developed for the acquisition of
images of moving organs in the five main medical imaging
modalities: conventional X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI), nuclear imaging and ultrasound. The
availability of dynamic image sequences allows for the qualitative
and quantitative assessment of an organ’s dynamics, which is
often linked to pathologies.
