Abstract (English):	Radiology allows to obtain an x-ray film to part of the human body by its exposure to X-rays. The radiation that passes through the studied object is attenuated according to the density and thickness of the object. The attenuated rays arrive at a receiver that can be the photographic film or an image intensificator that produces an image whose contrast is useful to the medical diagnosis. Angiography is a radiological procedure used to analysis blood flow in any organ of the body. Cardiac angiography to observe the coronary arteries, vascular angiography to study the irrigation of the brain, and ventriculography to observe the ventricular cavity are highlighted in this procedure. In this paper, a set of techniques developed for processing images acquired during cardiac angiography procedures is presented. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Spanish):	La radiología permite obtener una película radiográfica de la imagen de una parte del cuerpo humano, por su exposición a los rayos X. Cuando la radiación X atraviesa el objeto bajo estudio, sufre una atenuación que depende de la densidad y el espesor del objeto. Los rayos atenuados llegan a un a un receptor que puede ser la película fotográfica, produciendo así una imagen cuyo contraste facilitará el diagnóstico médico. La angiografía es un procedimiento radiológico usado para observar el flujo de sangre, en cualquier órgano del cuerpo. Bajo este procedimiento destacan la angiografía cardiaca para observar las arterias coronarias, la angiografía vascular para estudiar la irrigación del cerebro, y la ventriculografía, para observar la cavidad ventricular. En el presente artículo, se presentan un conjunto de técnicas desarrolladas para el procesamiento de imágenes adquiridas durante procedimientos de angiografía cardiaca. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
