Feature-tracking CMR. Short-axis, late gadolinium enhancement views of patients with idiopathic dilated cardiomyopathy, without and with mid-wall fibrosis (MWF, white arrows). The bottom tiles show plots of global circumferential strain (Ɛcc, purple), global radial strain (Ɛrr, red) and global longitudinal strain (Ɛll, green) over a cardiac cycle. Note the marked reduction in Ɛcc in the patient with MWF
