n=23, in 2 patients ECV was averaged over base and mid due to insufficient image quality in the apex
n=23, for 5 subjects ECV was averaged over base and mid due to insufficient image quality in the apex
n=22, ECV calculation was not feasible for 1 patient due to insufficient image quality, for 5 subjects ECV was averaged over base and mid due to insufficient image quality in the apex
Difference between ECV values for entire LV, Septum and Free Wall, Kruskal-Wallis test, significant when P<0.05
