Color kinesis may enable objective regional function assessment; leaves open routine clinical adoption pending validation.
Color kinesis is a relatively new echocardiographic technique that allows color encoding of endocardial motion in real time. We briefly review the literature on the current clinical uses and limitations of this technique, as well as its potential future applications based on some of our results. The major advantage of this modality is that it provides the basis for objective and automated evaluation of regional systolic and diastolic function, which may have a direct impact on the diagnosis of various myocardial disease states and, in particular, coronary artery disease.

Mor‐Avi et al. (1999) conducted a review in Myocardial disease states and coronary artery disease. Color kinesis was evaluated. Color kinesis provides the basis for objective and automated evaluation of regional systolic and diastolic function, which may impact the diagnosis of various myocardial disease states.
