| Popis: | Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) analysis demonstrated that regional variations of sensitivity exist in the detection of wall motion abnormality in cardiac blood pool imaging studies. The observer response is significantly better in the apex than either the septum or posterolateral wall segments. The observer errors tend to be false-negative in the posterolateral wall segment and false-positive in the other two segments. Image presentation can make a significant difference to the overall sensitivity, and the monochrome cine-sequence performed best in this study. |
