"There are 17 segments that have a reasonably consistent vascular supply from one of the three main coronary arteries (RCA, LAD and LCx), but significant anatomic variation does exist. This standard segmentation model can be used in cardiac nuclear tests, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, echocardiography and coronary angiography. Having a standard model optimises intra- and inter-modality comparison."

"In the long axis, the left ventricle is divided into equal thirds named the basal, mid and apical thirds. The tip of the apex forms a separate final segment. When these thirds are viewed in short axis they form rings that are numbered anticlockwise which can be further divided into equal sectors:"
