Abstract
The subject that I am going to speak about today is diagnostic biomedical imaging. I was asked to cover the field of biomedical imaging generally. That is clearly not possible but what I will try to do is give you a picture of what research and development is going on at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), then describe various state-of-the-art techniques that are being used today in diagnostic imaging, especially related to cardiovascular applications.
