A complete analysis of all 17 ventricularsegments, as described earlier, should be carried out.Both animal and clinical studies have documented thatwall motion is rapidly altered after coronary arteryocclusion. The first detectable abnormalities are cellularbiochemical changes and a perfusion defect (detected byradionuclide techniques), followed by delayed myocardialrelaxation and/or decreased compliance, and withinminutes, reduced systolic wall thickening and endocardialmotion. The electrocardiographic ST–T changes and1. Basal anterior2. Basal anteroseptal3. Basal inferoseptal4. Basal inferior5. Basal inferolateral6. Basal anterolateral7. Mid anterior8. Mid anteroseptal9.
