Top row; A case with expert visual scoring of septal LGE (a), high quantitative LGE burden using STRM >3SD (10.0 % of LVmass, b) but low LGE burden by STRM >5SD (2.1 % of LV mass, c). No events were recorded. Bottom row; A case with expert visual scoring of septal LGE (d) and high quantitative LGE burden by both STRM >3SD (35.6 % of LV mass, e) and STRM >5SD (21.5 % of LV mass, f). An appropriate ICD therapy was subsequently delivered for fast VT. LGE = late gadolinium enhancement; STRM = signal threshold versus reference mean; ICD = implantable cardioverter-defibrillator
