Visualiation of primary eigenvectors in a short-axis slice of an infarcted porcine heart. A LGE image showing enhanced image intensity in the infarcted region. B Map of left ventricle primary eigenvectors (same view as in A) color-coded by the absolute values of the inclination angle. The white arc delineates an anterior region of LV that spans from a non-infarcted region (a) to an infarcted region (b) - see Fig. 5. C Eigenvector visualization in three regions (red boxes in a). I: Infarcted septal wall, II: transition zone between infarcted and non-infarcted portions of the anterior wall, and III: non-infarcted region in the lateral wall
