It enables an online 3D modeling of the heart structures based on 2D X-ray angiographic sequences acquired under routine clinical conditions, thus offering medical added value in the areas of operation planning, wall motion study and 3D manipulation of cardiac structures. HPC technology was utilized in the 3D modeling procedure in an effort to minimize total system response time and to result in a system applicable in every day medical practice. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 1999.
