CMR-based myocardial tissue characterization. A CMR-derived ischemic late-gadolinium-enhancement (LGE) generally extending from the subendocardium representing ischemia caused irreversible myocardial damage. B Focal and patchy LGE pattern across the myocardium illustrating non-ischemic LGE. C Based on CMR-derived T1 mapping technique extracellular volume fraction (ECV) as the relative extracellular share of myocardial volume can be calculated. D Both left ventricular (LV) matrix and cellular volume portions of the in vivo myocardium can be calculated from the products of LV myocardial volume without LGE (LV myocardial volume LGE-) and ECV for LV matrix volume or [1 – ECV] for LV cellular volume
