a) Mean diffusivity (MD) for first and second order motion compensated (MC) diffusion encoding as function of trigger delay. Black lines represent the mean MD across the myocardium and gray the corresponding standard deviation. Solid lines represent the average across volunteers, dashed lines the corresponding standard deviation. The horizontal dashed lines indicate a range of minimum MD and 2.05×10-4mm2/s above. b) Example helix angle maps at basal level (top) for different trigger delays (% peak systole) and first as well as second order motion compensated (MC) diffusion encoding. c) Transmural helix angle histograms for apex and base. The box represents the 50% percentile and error bars the 90% percentile across the myocardium at different transmural depths.
