I'm not quite sure that I understand the display you want, but 
radial.plot in the plotrix package might do what you want. Also you 
could check the circular and CircStats packages.

You might want to take a look at the 'circular' or 'CircStats' packages
on CRAN:

http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/circular.html

http://cran.us.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/CircStats.html

There are some examples of plots generated using the packages in the R
Graphics Gallery here:

[R] bullseye or polar display of "circular" data

2006-08-03 Thread Michael Jerosch-Herold

I have data for several rings of a left heart chamber, and which I would like 
to display in concentric rings, with color-encoding of the values. Each ring 
corresponds to one slice through the heart, and the rings correspond to 
positions from the base to the apex of the heart as you move from the outermost 
ring to the innermost one. The data have a circular pattern. These types of 
displays are referred to as bullseye displays in the nuclear medicine 
literature. Does any reader of these messages know of a R function/package that 
offers this functionality?

Also I noticed that in some contexts you can define a "circular" attribute for 
your data. Are there plot routines for such "circular" data?

thank you!
