The clinical application of a new ultrasonic technique, echocardiokymography (ECKG), has been showed particularly useful in the detection of myocardial and pericardial dyskinesias. In patients with congestive cardiomyopathy, the global hypokynesia was confirmed by the ECKG; regional impairment of parietal wall motion after myocardial infarction is clearly demonstrated by the technique; acute and chronic pericarditis show peculiar kymographic patterns. The ECKG is a kind of two-dimensional examination, that keeps some of the advantages of the time-motion, in the comparative study of cardiac walls dynamics.
一种新的超声技术——超声心动图描记术（ECKG）的临床应用已显示出在检测心肌和心包运动障碍方面特别有用。在充血性心肌病患者中，ECKG证实了整体运动减弱；该技术清楚地显示了心肌梗死后室壁运动的局部损害；急性和慢性心包炎呈现出特殊的心动图模式。ECKG是一种二维检查，在心脏壁动力学的比较研究中保留了一些时间-运动的优点。
