## Abstract ## Purpose To compare a novel method, percentโinfarctโmapping (PIM), with conventional delayed enhancement (DE) of contrast for accurate myocardial viability assessment. Contrary to signal intensity (SI), the longitudinal relaxationโrate enhancement (ฮR1) is an intrinsic parameter line
## Purpose: The objective of this study is to determine regional left ventricle (lv) function and temporal heterogeneity of lv wall contraction by analyzing regional time-volume curve (tvc) after fourier fitting and to assess altered systolic and diastolic functions and temporal indices of myocardi
## Background: Cardiac computed tomography (cct) has the potential to assess both coronary anatomy and ventricular function in a single study. we examined the agreement between cct and myocardial perfusion scintigraphy (mps) for the assessment of global and regional ventricular function. ## Method
