Limitations of parametric modeling of the left ventricle using first harmonic analysis: possible role for gaussian modeling.

Background: Fourier (cosine) analysis of time activity curves (TAC) of radionuclide ventriculography (RVG) may oversimplify the TAC and has limitations.Methods: We identified 21 patients who had undergone 24 frame planar RVG with ejection fractions ranging from 8% to 76% (43% ± 19%). The TAC for eac...
