Correlation of global strain and torsion with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE). Pearson correlations (r) between global circumferential strain (GCS, top row), global radial strain (GRS, middle row) and torsion (lower row) vs global LGE as a percentage of the total wall mass. GCR, GRS and torsion assessed by DENSE, FT, and tagging for 116 patients plotted against LGE. The best-fit linear regression as well as the Pearson correlation coefficient and its p-value are shown for each plot. NS no significant correlation. The best correlation is seen between tagging strain amplitude and LGE while no correlation is seen between torsion and LGE
