Computerized automatic system to obtain inspiration/expiration chest roentgenograms without patient collaboration
1997
Abstract We have developed a computerized automatic X-ray image acquisition system. It consists of conventional pressure and flow transducers connected to a commercial data acquisition card installed in a PC AT , the card output being connected through a relay to a conventional X-ray system. Signal processing, that has been applied for automatic detection of inspiration and expiration in respiratory signals, allows the X-ray equipment activation at a given moment of the respiratory cycle. Radiographs are thus obtained either in inspiration or expiration at tidal volume on anaestesized experimental animals. The system has also been tested on non-collaborating patients.
