Информация о движении сердечной мышцы полезна для диагностики заболеваний сердца. Для таких исследований часто применяется двумерная ультразвуковая кардиография (эхокардиография). Изображения, получаемые при эхокардиографии, весьма неотчетливы и трудны для расшифровки; результат диагностики во многом зависит от опыта эксперта. Поэтому прилагаются усилия в направлении улучшения метода. Большинство существующих методов двумерной эхокардиографии подвержены влиянию сдвиговых, поворотных и других видов сложного движения сердца. Для увеличения устойчивости к таким движениям предложен новый алгоритм обработки сигнала, работоспособность и эффективность которого, как показано в статье, выше, чем существующих.
