A main limitation is the lack of normality models for complementary scores oriented to assessment of the LV integrity. This paper introduces an original framework based on a parametrization of the LV domain, which allows comparison across subjects of local physiological measures of different nature. We compute regional normality patterns in a feature space characterizing the LV function. We show the consistency of the model for the regional motion on healthy and hypokinetic pathological cases %U http://refbase.cvc.uab.es/files/GCP2008.pdf %U http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/ICPR.2008.4761738 %P 1-4
