ABSTRACT
Phase analysis of radionuclide ventriculograms were performed in eighty patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and in sixteen healthy subjects. The phase image in the normal group revealed a homogeneous pattern and a narrow bell shaped histogram. In forty one patients with CAD whose Left ventriculogram showed hypokinetic segments, phase image was abnormal in twenty six revealing well demarcated areas of contraction abnormality and a histogram showing broad base with multiple peaks. The mean phase angle and the standard deviation (S.D.) of phase histogram of the abnormal segments was significantly different from normal. Eighteen patients with CAD had akinetic segments. Phase analysis was abnormal in all. Six patients with CAD had dyskinetic segments. It is concluded that phase image analysis is very useful in detecting segmental wall motion abnormalities.
