Objective:To evaluate inter-ventricular myocardial synchrony in normal subjects by velocity vector imaging(VVI). Methods:Siemens Sequoia 512 equipment with 4V1c probe and VVI sofeware were used. Thirty-five subjects were enrolled in this study. Results:The fifty percent of time from R wave to peak of S wave in apical segments of anterior septum, inferior septum and anterior wall were all longer than those in basal and mid segments(P < 0.05). In parasternal short-axis view at level of mitral valve,there were significant differences in the seventy-five percent of time from R wave to peak of S wave among inferior wall, anterior wall, anterior septum and lateral wall,as well as in fifty percent of time from R wave to peak of S wave. Conclusion:It is important to maintain myocardial synchrony for the cardiac function. VVI can noninvasively, quantitatively, accurately and quickly assess myocardial synchrony.
