The imaging of moving organs such as the heart, in particular,is a real challenge because of its movement. This book presentscurrent and emerging methods developed for the acquisition ofimages of moving organs in the five main medical imagingmodalities: conventional X-rays, computed tomography (CT), magneticresonance imaging (MRI), nuclear imaging and ultrasound. Theavailability of dynamic image sequences allows for the qualitativeand quantitative assessment of an organ's dynamics, which isoften linked to pathologies.
