Figure 4

(A - D). 3D models of the left ventricle in an 51 year old male patient following primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PPCI) to a left circumflex artery occlusion. The images show co-registered data from segmented cine and Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) images. (A) Distribution of enhancing necrosis (transmural percentage of infarcted myocardium) at baseline. (B) Left ventricular wall thickness (mm) at baseline. (C) Local myocardial remodeling between baseline and follow-up (percentage expansion). (D) Left ventricular wall thickness at follow-up (mm). These images demonstrate the anatomic relationship between the zone of infarction and the extent of local remodeling and wall thinning.
