Table 3 Summary statistics quantifying ex vivo left ventricle wall thickness and left ventricle chamber diameter with comparison to predicted in vivo values from body mass
Ventricular wall thickness/chamber-diameter measured | Measured thickness in ex vivo FLASH | Predicted in vivo diastolic thickness | Predicted diastolic thickness as percentage of measured | Predicted in vivo systolic thickness | Predicted systolic thickness as percentage of measured |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Interventricular septum | 3.0 ± 0.1 | 1.0 ± 0.0 | 33.3% | 1.7 ± 0.0 | 56.7% |
Left ventricular posterior wall | 3.5 ± 0.3 | 1.3 ± 0.0 | 37.1% | 1.8 ± 0.1 | 51.4% |
Left ventricular diameter | 3.7 ± 0.3 | 6.2 ± 0.1 | 168.6% | 3.5 ± 0.0 | 94.6% |
