CMR post-processing methods for data acquisition. Endocardial left ventricular (LV) contours (in red) were drawn a excluding and b including trabeculae and papillary muscles (TPM) in the total LV mass as shown (in purple). Epicardial contours (in green) were maintained between techniques for LV mass calculation. LV end—diastolic diameter and anterior and posterior wall thickness were measured at mid ventricular level (yellow lines)
