From: Accuracy and precision of chronic myocardial infarct characterization with native T1 mapping at 3T
Bar plots compare the mean infarct size (A) and transmurality (B) measured using different thresholding and visual delineation techniques on native T 1 maps to those measured on LGE images using Mean+5SD criterion. Bar plots comparing the accuracy and precision of different thresholding and visual delineation techniques to detect chronic MI are also shown (C). Of all the techniques used for infarct characterization on T1 maps, Mean+5SD criterion showed the best agreement to LGE images. ROC analysis (D) showed the strongest diagnostic performance for Mean+5SD technique, and the weakest diagnostic performance for visual delineation.
