Value averaging is an investing strategy that works like dollar cost averaging (DCA) in terms of steady monthly contributions, but differs in its approach to the amount of each monthly contribution. In value averaging, the investor sets a target growth rate or amount on his or her asset base or portfolio each month, and then adjusts the next month's contribution according to the relative gain or shortfall made on the original asset base.

La angiografía digital es un método de generar imágenes de estructuras vasculares basado en la técnica de sustracción, la cual trata de "sustraer" determinados elementos o componentes de una imagen que dificultan la visualización de algunos detalles concretos. Básicamente, el sistema consiste en una imagen basal de la que se obtiene un negativo o máscara, que es la imagen inversa de la basal. Si sobre la imagen basal añadimos un nuevo elemento, como el contraste intravascular, la superposición de éste con la máscara permitirá borrar o sustraer todos los elementos de la imagen basal, dejando únicamente el elemento añadido nuevo. Así, mínimos detalles de vasos pequeños, difícilmente visibles por la superposición de estructuras óseas, pueden ser claramente visibles al borrar o "sustraer" el hueso.
