From: 108 Accelerated 3D tagging to assess left ventricular dyssynchrony in patients with sub-acute myocardial infarctions

Figure 2

Results for a representative patient with anterior myocardial infarction. (a) Tagged image (slice through 3D data set) with sector definitions and exemplary late enhancement imges on 3 cardiac levels. (b) Polar map of viability: Regions exhibiting late enhancement due to scar tissue. (c) Polar map of deformation: Circumf. shortening (csh) at end-systole. (d) Polar map of dyssynchrony: Time difference Tdiff map for maximum csh relative to the mean Tmax. Blue = early, red = delayed, green = regular timing of contraction.
