50 patients were investigated by both left ventricular cine-angiography, and "balanced" gamma-cine-cardiography in the frontal and LAO positions. Measurements of the ejection fraction and the mean and maximal speeds of contraction were made by the two techniques. The correlation was good (r = 0.89 for the ejection fraction). A morphological analysis of the dynamic findings in the two methods in the 12 cases with discordered left ventricular kinetics showed that once again the results were very similar. A numerical presentation of the data from the radioisotope studies was made either as a group of sequential ventricular contours successively from diastole to systole, or to give a functional picture which would provide the value for one kinetic paramter at any one time (for example, the regional equivalent of the ejection fraction). To overcome the problems of superimposition in the RAO position in the "balanced" technique, the recordings of the first radioisotope study in RAO were combined with a study of balance in 50 other patients, and the correlation was excellent. These two isotope techniques, which can be carried out in the same examination and which may be repeated without risk, perfectly complement each other, and very few of the results were incapable of interpretation.
