  1. Observed agreement of CMR enhancement and Evans blue uptake calculated for both injured and uninjured segments. Positive CMR enhancement was defined as areas with SI 5 SD above the adjacent myocardium and Evans blue was defined as an intense blue color in the vessel wall and perivascular area that was visually distinct from the surrounding tissue. (+) = Yes (-) = No
