Fig. 1

Example of illustration of contractile (partially) fibrotic (CT-F) segments. CT-F segments were identified as those showing wall motion (WM-1) and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) < 50% (A), WM-2 and LGE < 50% (B), WM-1 and LGE > 50% (C), or WM-2 and LGE > 50% (D). Panels E–G show an example CT-F segment. Hyper-enhancement area (E, LGE < 50%) in basal inferior segment associated with a good contractility (WM1) comparing diastolic frame (F) and systolic frame (G) on cine cardiovascular magnetic resonance images. CT-F, contractile fibrotic; LGE, late gadolinium enhancement; SSFP, steady-state free precession; WM, wall motion
