About Nico Bruining
Nico Bruining is a scientist working at the Thoraxcenter of the Erasmus MC, Rotterdam, The Netherlands. After studying technical computer science het started working at the catheterization laboratory of the Thoraxcenter in 1985. Since 1993, until today, he is working at the department of experimental and clinical informatics of the Thoraxcenter were his field of interest is mainly cardiovascular image processing. In 1998 he obtained his PhD on the thesis: "Quantitative 3-D echocardiography of the heart and the coronary vessels". Currently, his focus is on multi-modality imaging and the development of quantitative tools to improve research in the area of cardiac disease and atherosclerosis. He is currently chairman of the working group of Computers in Cardiology within the European Society of Cardiology.

Objectives and background: Quantitative analysis of intracoronary optical coherence tomography (OCT) image data (QOCT) is currently performed by a time-consuming manual contour tracing process in individual OCT images acquired during a pullback procedure (frame-based method). To get an efficient quantitative analysis process, we developed a fully automatic three-dimensional (3D) lumen contour detection method and evaluated the results against those derived by expert human observers. Methods: The method was developed using ... (Read Full Article)

Introduction and objectives. The relationship between the lumen dimensions obtained in human coronary arteries using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) and those obtained using optical coherence tomography (OCT) is not well understood. The objectives were to compare the lumen measurement obtained ex vivo in human coronary arteries using IVUS, OCT, and histomorphometry, and in vivo in patients using IVUS and OCT with and without balloon occlusion. Methods. Ex vivo study: the lumen ...
