From: In vivo cardiovascular magnetic resonance diffusion tensor imaging shows evidence of abnormal myocardial laminar orientations and mobility in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Figure 6

Secondary eigenvector mobility. Scatter plots showing the E2 mobility (mean absolute E2 angle change between diastole and systole) for all subjects at the two imaged cardiac phases. A) Global mean E2A values. B) Global controls vs HCM cohort with the myocardium divided into three different regions: regions with hypertrophy and LGE (H+LG+), regions with hypertrophy but no LGE (H+LG-), and regions with no hypertrophy or LGE (H-LG-). In all plots the median and interquartile range are shown. The plots include a colour bar, which encodes the y-axis values. Of note, it shows the most abnormal orientations, inclined steeply inward from the wall plane with low mobility, in the hypertrophic regions, whether not there is LGE evidence of fibrosis. *P-value multiplied by 2for Bonferroni correction for 2 tests. †P-value multiplied by 3 for Bonferroni correction for 3 tests.
