Feasibility and initial experience of assessment of mechanical dyssynchrony using cardiovascular magnetic resonance and semi-automatic border detection

Table 2 CMR results of volumes and ejection fraction

Parameters	Heart failure patients (n = 35)	Controls (n = 10)	p value
LVEDV (mL)	312 ± 122	145 ± 46	<0.001
LVESV (mL)	225 ± 118	48 ± 27	<0.001
EF (%)	30 ± 11	70 ± 11	<0.001
SDI (%)	14.5 ± 4.7	4.9 ± 1.5	<0.001

Values are presented as mean ± S.D.
LVEDV = left ventricular end diastolic volume, LVESV = left ventricular end systolic. volume, EF = ejection fraction, SDI = systolic dyssynchrony index.
