Figure 4From: Relationship of phasic left atrial volume and emptying function to left ventricular filling pressure: a cardiovascular magnetic resonance study Area under the curves by receiver operator characteristic analysis assessing the relationships of the following left atrial indices to elevated left ventricular end diastolic pressure (> = 12 mmHg): (A), left atrial volume at left ventricular end diastole (LAV min ); (B), left atrial volume at left ventricular end systole (LAV max ); (C), left atrial volume at left ventricular late diastole before left atrial systole (LAV ac ); (D), passive left atrial emptying function (LAEF Passive ); (E), active left atrial emptying function (LAEF Contractile ); and (F), global left atrial emptying function (LAEF Total ).
