Abstract :
In this paper a new method for road mapping of peripheral angiograph is introduced. The method depends on detecting the edges of the peripheral vessels after the deinjection during the catheterization operation and drawing a road map for the vessels so that the angiographer can navigate through these drawn paths with his catheter under fluoroscope X-ray exposure
