From: High resolution spiral myocardial phase velocity mapping (PVM) of the entire cardiac cycle
Basal (top), mid (middle) and apical (bottom) short-axis colour-maps displaying regional longitudinal (left), radial (middle) and circumferential (right) velocities (from anterior wall through to lateral, inferior and septal walls on the vertical axis) against time after the R-wave (horizontal axis), averaged over the ten healthy volunteers. Regional differences in velocities and their timings may be easily assessed and complicated motion patterns rapidly visualized.
