    Abstract: A method for generating time-resolved 3D medical images of a subject by imparting temporal information from a time-series of 2D medical images into 3D images of the subject. Generally speaking, this is achieved by acquiring image data using a medical imaging system, generating a time-series of 2D images of a ROI from at least a portion of the acquired image data, reconstructing a 3D image substantially without temporal resolution from the acquired image data, and selectively combining the time series of 2D images with the 3D image. Selective combination typically involves registering frames of the time-series of 2D images with the 3D image, projecting pixel values from the 2D image frames “into” the 3D image, and weighting the 3D image with the projected pixel values for each frame of the time-series of 2D images. This method is particularly useful for generating 4D-DSA images (that is, time-resolved 3D-DSA images) from a time-series of 2D-DSA images acquired via single plane or biplane x-ray acquisitions with 3D images acquired via a rotational DSA acquisition. 4D-DSA images can be generated either by using multiple injections or by using a single injection by combining a time-series of 2D-DSA images generated from individual projections from a rotational x-ray acquisition with a 3D image reconstructed from substantially all of the projection views acquired during the rotational x-ray acquisition. These DSA images may have a spatial resolution on the order of 5123 pixels and a temporal resolution of about 30 frames per second, which represents an increase over traditional 3D-DSA frame rates by a factor of between 150 and 600.

    Abstract: In an apparatus and method for treating an aneurysm, a flow control member is positioned within a blood vessel at least in part upstream of an aneurysm and extending radially inward of the blood vessel wall into the flow path of blood flowing within the blood vessel. The flow control member alters the blood flow path within the blood vessel upstream of the aneurysm to inhibit blood flow to the aneurysm. A retention member may be positioned within the blood vessel at least in part upstream from the aneurysm and having an outer surface engageable with the blood vessel wall. In such an instance, the flow control member is retained by the retention member and extends radially inward of the blood vessel wall upstream from the aneurysm.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for providing therapeutic occlusions of blood vessels and other body tubular structures using an inflatable balloon (11) mounted at the end of a catheter (15). The balloon (11) and catheter (15) are passed through a blood vessel (12) until the balloon (15) reaches the desired location of the occlusion; a suspension of solid filler particles (27) in a carrier liquid is then pumped through the catheter tube (15) and inflates the blloon (11) until it blocks off the blood vessel. The carrier liquid is forced out through the porous walls of the balloon, leaving a compacted mass of filler particles which will not allow the balloon to shrink. Ridges (20) on the end of the catheter tube (15) engage mating grooves (21) in the neck portion (14) of the balloon structure during insertion and filling of the balloon; the size, shape, and number of these ridges and grooves can be selected to provide a desired force required to detach the catheter tube from the balloon. A valve (18) in the neck portion (14) of the balloon structure allows the particle suspension to pass into the balloon but blocks flow of particles out of the balloon while preferably allowing the carrier liquid to pass therethrough. Medication may be impregnated in either the particles in the balloon or the porous balloon walls to allow controlled release of the medication into the bloodstream.
