Fig. 2 — LGE quantification by expert using manual adjustment of the SI threshold. Absolute SI threshold being adjusted (arrow) with tissue having a signal above the selected value highlighted in yellow. Panel a: raw LGE image. Panel b: At 10 units this was felt to over-represent LGE. Panel c: At 17 units an appropriate segmentation was achieved. Panel d: At 28 units an under-representation of LGE was seen. Therefore, 17 units was chosen to represent LGE burden. LGE = late gadolinium enhancement; SI = signal intensity
