Segmental strain in segments with late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) transmurality > 50%. Relationship between segmental circumferential strain (top row) and segmental radial strain (lower row) and LGE transmurality in segments with LGE > 50% (84 segments from 34 patients). Strain was assessed by DENSE, FT and tagging. 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
