Table 1 Global redial and long-axis (± standard deviation) velocities over all segments for each of the patient cohorts. P-values less than 0.05 denote significant differences between cohorts.
LV velocities | No Scar [cm/s] | Low Scar [cm/s] | High Scar [cm/s] | p-value (No vs. Low) | p-value (No vs. High) | p-value (Low vs. High) |
