| Abstract | The objective of this work was to simultaneously introduce known regional changes in contraction pattern and perfusion to the existing gated mathematical cardiac torso (MCAT) phantom heart model. We derived a simple integral to calculate the fraction of the ellipsoidal volume that make up the LV, taking into account the stationary apex and the moving base. After calculating the LV myocardium volume of the existing beating heart model, we use the property of conservation of mass to manipulate the LV ejection fraction to values ranging between 13.5% and 68.9%. Multiple dynamic heart models that differ in degree of LV wall thickening, base-to-apex motion, and ejection fraction, are now available to use with the existing MCAT methodology. To introduce more complex regional LV contraction and perfusion patterns, composites of dynamic heart models are used to create a central region with no or little motion and/or perfusion and a changeover to the normal motion and/or perfusion. Gated cardiac acquisitions for different clinical situations were simulated analytically: 1) a reduced regional motion and perfusion (50% and 75% of normal); 2) same perfusion as in (1) without motion intervention; and 3) washout from the normal myocardium of the LV to 20% of normal, with a reduction to only 40% of normal in the diseased region. Both motion and perfusion can change dynamically during a single rotation or multiple rotations of a simulated SPECT acquisition system. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
