Representative T1 and Extracellular volume fraction (ECV) maps (local) from the control and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) group. a–c Representative T1 and ECV maps from the control group (1) and HFpEF group (2). Myocardial R1 changes for the final ECV analysis were calculated within septal myocardium, as indicated by red arrows in c. d ECV values were significantly higher in HFpEF group (22.43% ± 2.51%), compared with the control group (18.02% ± 2.13%), P = 0.0010
