Fig. 3

Graphical illustration of the novel concepts of maxT2/maxSD (a) and madT2/madSD (b). Each box represents one segment (1–16) of one individual. Red dots represent focal spots of myocardial inflammation. The graphs at the bottom illustrate the corresponding individual T2/Pixel-SD values, aufgetragen over all 16 segments in order to define maxT2/maxSD (a) as well as madT2/madSD (b). In b, black horizontal lines indicate the mean across segments. Vertical black lines for madT2/madSD illustrate the deviations from mean that are averaged to obtain the MAD. MAD - mean absolute deviation. Seg. - segment
