Figure 1From: Ultrafast in-line interactive m-mode tool for quantification of left-ventricular (LV) septo-lateral wall motion (SLWM) from high-temporal resolution (6-12ms) cardiac cine steady-state free precession (SSFP) imagesThe normal and abnormal SLWM slice (A, D) with overlay of septo-lateral line, (B, E) M-mode with overlay of septal (magenta) and lateral (blue) wall contours, and (C, F) percentage radial contraction w.r.t. ED LV diameter. Dotted lines: ES (yellow), and onset of septal (magenta) and lateral (blue) peak contraction. Note the distinct difference in the % radial contraction pattern between the two representative cases.Back to article page
