Comparison of strain analysis by tagging and feature tracking (FT) at short axis (SAX). (a, b) Tagged complementary spatial modulation of magnetisation (CSPAMM) basal short axis slice shown with endocardial and epicardial contours at end-diastole (ED) end-systole (ES) in a patient following inferior MI. (c) The resultant peak systolic circumferential strain curve at each segment with severely hypokinetic segments denoted by an (*). (d, e) Feature Tracking (FT) on cine Steady State Free Precession (SSFP) SAX slice with endocardial borders defined is shown at ED (d) and ES (E). (f) Segmental peak systolic circumferential strain curve by FT with dyskinetic segment denoted by an asterisk (*)
