Example of changing values in the same area of fibrosis depending on the method of calculation: algorithms that normalize by the total area of the AHA segmentation lose the spatial concept of transmurality (STAB, STLB and WIT), and algorithms that do not normalize by the area retain spatial information (SMST). STAB indicates scar transmurality area based; STLB, scar transmurality line based; WIT, weighted infarct transmurality; SMST, spatial maximal transmurality.
