%X The active contour model (ACM) permits to simultaneously solve, in constrained cases, both the segmentation and tracking problems and has been proposed by [Kass et al (1987)]. The aim of this work is to propose a particular ACM formulation to track and analyze left ventricular endocardial wall motion from color kinesis echocardiography images [Murta (1998)]. A new approach called PR-Greedy algorithm is presented.
