Fig. 3From: The use of dedicated long-axis views focused on the left atrium improves the accuracy of left atrial volumes and emptying fraction measured by cardiovascular magnetic resonanceLeft atrial maximum volume (LAVmax): comparison between methods. Comparison of LAVmax obtained using the biplane area-length method applied to both the standard (top panels) and the LA-focused (bottom panels) cine images, with LAVmax derived by the short-axis segmentation used as referenceBack to article page
