Table 2. – Association of cardiac magnetic resonance fibrosis identified in late enhancement images (visual detection) and presence of fibrosis suggested by q waves ( ≥0.04 s in duration and ≥25% of R wave size or lack of progression of R wave increase in precordial leads) in electrocardiogram. Chi-Square=0.007.
Fibrosis | CMR absent | CMR present |
---|---|---|
ECG absent | 18 | 32 |
ECG present | 0 | 14 |
CMR: cardiac magnetic resonance; ECG: electrocardiogram.
