Left ventricle bullseye#
This example demonstrates how to create the 17 segment model for the left ventricle recommended by the American Heart Association (AHA).
See also the Nested pie charts example.

def bullseye_plot(ax, data, seg_bold=None, cmap="viridis", norm=None):
"""
Bullseye representation for the left ventricle.
Parameters
----------
ax : axes
data : list[float]
The intensity values for each of the 17 segments.
seg_bold : list[int], optional
A list with the segments to highlight.
cmap : colormap, default: "viridis"
Colormap for the data.
norm : Normalize or None, optional
Normalizer for the data.
Notes
-----
This function creates the 17 segment model for the left ventricle according
to the American Heart Association (AHA) [1]_
