ABSTRACT
Objective：To quantitatively analyse regional ventricular wall motion with color kinesis（CK）by a specially designed soft ware.
Methods：45 normal subjects and 15 old myocardial infarction patients were involved in this study.The end－systolic CK images of left ventricular midpapillary parasternal short axis view and apical four－chamber view were obtained from all subjects.And then regional fraction area change（RFAC）of every myocardial segment at specific phase during systolic cycle was calculated.
Resuits：CK displayed endocardial motion in a multicolor－band mode accurately.Patterns of CK images from normal subjects in the same kind of ultrasound views were relatively consistent.
Conclusion：RFAC is a good index to quantitate regional ventricular wall motion.It is a powerful tool for the dectection of abnormal wall segment in patients with coronary artery disease.
