• three plane technology

Modern IR Fluoro equipment allows for cardiac imaging which takes images at ____

• 90 frames per second

• 120 frames per second

• 30 frames per second

• 60 frames per second

Increases visibility of vasculature by creating images pre contrast, post contrast and vessels by itself

• last image hold

• digital subtraction

• roadmapping

uses the maximum contrast filled image as a mask that can be subtracted from precontrast images

• Fluoro Loop save

• Roadmapping

• Digital subtraction

This tool provides a better method to navigate the catheter or wire through tortuous vessels

• digital Image Inversion

• Roadmapping

• Digital Subtraction
