Counts of a gamma camera, acquired during a nuclear cardiac structure examination, which represent time-activity curves at different locations of a pixel matrix of the cardiac structure are fitted to a cosine wave function. From said fitted function the wave amplitude, phase, and an error value (representing the reliability of the acquired time-activity curve) are extracted. Finally, for each location in the pixel matrix said extracted values are simultaneously displayed as they are acquired.
