The standard deviation of the first harmonic Fourier phase histogram is an indicator of the contraction heterogeneity of the heart ventricles. This approach has been applied to analyse tomographic blood pool (99mTc) examinations in a group of 32 patients with angiographically verified mainly right (
Multiple gated blood pool (MUGA) and contrast ventriculographic studies were performed within 24 h in 80 patients, 20 with 120 normokinetic wall segments and 60 with wall motion abnormalities in 239 of 360 wall segments. Three methods of evaluation of the radionuclide ventriculograms were compared w
## Background: A count-based method using technetium-99m sestamibi electrocardiography-gated myocardial perfusion single photon emission computed tomography imaging has been developed to extract the left ventricular (lv) regional phase of contraction (onset of mechanical contraction [omc]) througho
