Slide 2

Not New!

Phantom developed
some years ago
need to test amplitude
and phase component

not designed for
ejection fraction


Slide 3

Normal / Abnormal MUGA

Slide 4

Single Harmonic Fourier
At each pixel position, we fit a curve based on first term
of Fourier series
a + b.sin(t) + c.cos(t)
= A.sin(t + )
the first harmonic is a sinusoid function with the
fundamental frequency  and a phase angle  .


Slide 5

Sum of Cos and Sin terms

+ =


Slide 6

Sum of Cos and Sin terms

+ =


Slide 7

Sum of Cos and Sin terms

+ =
• Frequency does not change
• phase change only


Slide 8

Sum of Cos and Sin terms

+ =
• Frequency does not change
• phase change only

Test Procedure

Need to input sinusoid terms

want amplitude range 0 - 100%
want phase values 0 - 360

Amplitude and phase


Slide 19

Phase direction
note 90 degree shift in
phase angle
Phase should follow the
phantom

Phase is actually going in
opposite direction


Slide 20

Change of ED ROI


Slide 21

Effect of change in ED position


Slide 22

Different ROI position


Slide 23

Phantom for EF curve creation

• Perimeter of phantom based on EF curve
• similar effects seen
• shows robust Fourier fit at low ejection
fraction and counts


Slide 24

Previous work - different processor

Area of LV was delayed
phase shows early contraction!!
phase was reversed

Slide 30

3 harmonic phantom

Fourier curve fit tries to fit
first EF type component

Slide 34

Issues
• Phase angle appears to run in wrong direction
• Will not affect aneurism detection

• Amplitude and phase dependent on ROI
• Fourier fits to CDBS curve

• Time to Peak Fill is based on Fourier curve
• Suggest use 4 harmonic fit routinely
