国家同步加速器光源的同步加速器医学研究设施（SMERF）已经建成，并可用于人体冠状动脉造影实验。成像系统和硬件已经从斯坦福大学同步辐射实验室带到SMERF，在那里进行了先前的研究。SMERF由高场超导摇摆器X17束线末端的一套房间组成，被归类为流动医疗设施。自1990年10月以来，已对5名患者的冠状动脉进行了成像。不断提高的图像质量表明，在静脉注射造影剂后，可以对右冠状动脉和左前降支冠状动脉的大部分进行成像。
The Synchrotron Medical Research Facility (SMERF) at the National Synchrotron Light Source has been completed and is operational for human coronary angiography experiments. The imaging system and hardware have been brought to SMERF from the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory where prior studies were carried out. SMERF consists of a suite of rooms at the end of the high‐field superconducting wiggler X17 beam line and is classified as an Ambulatory Health Care Facility. Since October of 1990 the coronary arteries of five patients have been imaged. Continuously improving image quality has shown that a large part of both the right coronary artery and the left anterior descending coronary artery can be imaged following a venous injection of contrast agent.
