Table 3.
Regional mean diffusivity (×103 mm2/s) in systole and diastole, mean ± SD
| Mean Diffusivity (×103 mm2/s) | N = 43 | p value |
|---|---|---|
| Systolic: | ANOVA: F = 1.50, p = 0.22 | |
| Lateral | 0.95 ± 0.16 | |
| Anterior | 0.90 ± 0.18 | |
| Inferior | 0.93 ± 0.18 | |
| Septal | 0.94 ± 0.18 | |
| Diastolic: | ANOVA: F = 14.3, p <0.001 | |
| Lateral | 1.20 ± 0.24 | Reference |
| Anterior | 0.99 ± 0.15 | p <0.001 |
| Inferior | 1.05 ± 0.18 | p = 0.01 |
| Septal | 1.20 ± 0.25 | p = 1.0 |
Values are Bonferroni corrected and therefore a p value of p < 0.05 was taken as the level of significance
