Description

The success of Fourier analysis in assessing cardiac function has led us to investigate other possible uses of this technique. We show that phase analysis applied to dynamic non periodic activity changes gives useful parametric functional images. The phase image is comparable to a transit time image, the amplitude image is comparable to the maximum variations of activity and the mean image corresponds to a normalized sum of images. Exemples of this powerful application of Fourier analysis are discussed

Abstract (French)

Le succes de l'analyse de Fourier pour la determination de la fonction cardiaque nous a incite a appliquer cette methode a l'etude des dynamiques non periodiques en Medecine Nucleaire. Les resultats de cette analyse fournissent des images parametriques fonctionnelles. L'image de phase est comparable a une image des temps de transit, l'image d'amplitude correspond aux plus grandes variations de la radioactivite et l'image moyenne correspond a une image cumulee normalisee. Plusieurs exemples de cette application puissante de l'analyse de Fourier sont presentes et discutes
