[Operation] A DSA subtraction image (coronary) of the same region that was previously taken is added to the perspective image near the heart and displayed. At this time, one DSA image (from the R wave to the R wave of the electrocardiographic waveform) is collected at 30 sheets / sec. When looking at a fluoroscopic image, the electrocardiographic waveform is always captured and always added in real time to the DSA image synchronized with the electrocardiographic waveform.
At that time, the DSA image to be added displays the blood vessel in white, and is identified by moving the black catheter over the white blood vessel on the fluoroscopic image.
