Correlation between Evans blue and MR enhancement

	Evans Blue: +	Evans Blue: -	Total
MR Enhancement: +	8	0	8
MR Enhancement: -	2	4	6
Total	10	4	14

Observed agreement of CMR enhancement and Evans blue uptake calculated for both injured and uninjured segments. Positive CMR enhancement was defined as areas with SI 5 SD above the adjacent myocardium and Evans blue was defined as an intense blue color in the vessel wall and perivascular area that was visually distinct from the surrounding tissue. (+) = Yes (-) = No
