Figure 2From: Quantitative analysis of late gadolinium enhancement in hypertrophic cardiomyopathyOverlapping between the Rayleigh curve and the measured curve of distribution of signal intensity in a patient with HCM and in a control. The yellow area is the intersection between the curves. The concordance between the curves was measured as the ratio between the area of intersection and the area under the Rayleigh. In HCM patients (A) the two curves were very different and LGE was defined as the myocardial signal higher than the maximal signal of the Rayleigh. In the control (B) no LGE was detected.Back to article page
