Fig. 5From: Localized strain characterization of cardiomyopathy in Duchenne muscular dystrophy using novel 4D kinematic analysis of cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance3D + time CMR localized surface area strain significantly different in DMD vs. healthy control subjects. A Short-axis schematic representation of surface area strain (Ea) B Healthy control polar plot with overlaid slice-level polar map and 3D LV colorized endocardium representation of local Ea. C Localized and global peak Ea significantly different between healthy control subjects and DMD patients. D Mild, E moderate, and F severe (as determined by LVEF) DMD patient examples of 17 segment polar and 3D colorized LV representations of peak Ea.
