Figure 4. Clinical response to CRT based on CMR findings.

Figure 4

These plots show data based on individual improvement in function class for patients in the CRT-HF cohort based on baseline characteristics such as QRSd (A), CURE (B), and percent left ventricular scar volume by DEMRI (C). Those with function class improvement are shown in the left column of each panel, while those without improvement are shown in the right panel. QRSd (A) has no association with improvement in function class. MR-MT (B) has better accuracy (90%) than DEMRI (78%) and (C) MR-MT and DEMRI combined have superior accuracy (95%). This highlights the superior accuracy of CURE for predicting function class improvement.
