Patient example of a 73-year-old male with BMI of 30.7 with a previous percutaneous cardiac intervention (PCI) and known arteriosclerosis of the coronary arteries presenting with chest pain. Respiratory motion estimates were 9.2, 12.9 and 37.4 mm in the x (left-to-right), y (anterior-inferior), and z (head-to-foot) directions respectively. (A) Shown are short-, horizontal long-, and vertical long-axis slices without (top) and with (bottom) respiratory compensation. (B) Comparison of polar maps generated from short-axis slices without (top) and with (bottom) respiratory motion compensation. (C) Presentation of the average % segmental-count differences between without and with respiratory motion compensation for the 17 polar map segments.
