Sequential quantitative first pass radionuclide angiocardiograms (RA) were used to measure left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) and left ventricular ejection rate (LVER), and to assess regional wall motion (RWM) in the anterior (ANT) and left anterior oblique (LAO) positions. Studies were obtained with a computerized multicrystal scintillation camera suitable for acquiring high count-rate data. Background was determined in a new fashion by selecting frames temporally from the left ventricular region of interest time-activity curve. A "representative" cardiac cycle was formed by summing together counts over three to six cardiac cycles. From this background corrected, high count-rate "representative" cardiac cycle, LVEF, LVER, and RWM were determined. In 22 patients with normal sinus rhythm in the absence of significant valvular regurgitation, RA LVEF correlated well with that measured by contrast angiography (r= 0.95). LVER correlated well with LVEF measured at contrast angiography (r =.90) and allowed complete separation of those with normal (LVER = 3.4 ± 0.17 sec'-) and abnormal (LVER = 1.22 ± 0.11 sec'1) (P < .001) left ventricular performance. This separation was independent of background. Isoproterenol infusion in five normal subjects caused LVER to increase by 81 ± 17% while LVEF increased by 10 ± 2.1%. RWM was correctly defined in 21/22 patients and 89% of left ventricular segments with abnormal wall motion.
