Table 4. Summary of Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) Changes.

Study no./gender Left ventricle (LV) Right ventricle (RV)
1/M Normal with EF 55% EDV 151 mL (79.5 mL/m2)*
ESV 83 mL (43.7 mL/m2)
RVEF 45%
Moderately to severely dilated with dyskinetic motion in the free wall and basal aneurysm
T1-weighted images show area of severe thinning on the free wall of right ventricle
2/M Normal
EDV 153 mL
ESV 56 mL
EF 63%
EDV 178 mL (93.7 mL/m2)
ESV 121 mL (63.7 mL/m2)
EF 32%
Moderate dilatation with generalized hypokinesis.
There are localized RV areas of micro-aneurysms, mainly at the RVOT and the RV apex
Prominent papillary muscle and the trabeculation
3/M EF > 55% EDV 100 mL (50 mL/m2)
ESV 48 mL (24 mL/m2)
EF 52%
Thinned of the free wall with a small area of severe thinning, nears the RV apex with dyskinesis and diastolic bulging fulfilling the criterion of aneurysm
4/F Normal systolic function EDV 249 mL (207 mL/m2)
ESV 212 mL (176.7 mL/m2)
EF 15%
Stroke volume 36.2 mL
Severely dilated and hypertrabiculated
Very thinned out RV especially apical regions with evidence of microaneurysm and diastolic bulge and segmental dilatation of RV
The RVOT is dilated with hypokinesia. Evidence of at least mild-to-moderate TR regurgitation
5/F EDV 83 mL
ESV 41 mL
EF 50%
Mild global hypokinesis and akinesis of the distal septum
EDV 120 mL (70.6 mL/m2)
RV ESV 83 mL (48.8 mL/m2)
EF 31%
Stroke volume 37 mL
Severely dilated with severe global hypokinesis and dyskinesis of the RV apex and severe thinning noted in both cine and dark blood imaging
Delayed myocardial enhancement demonstrates severe thinning of the free wall of the right ventricle
6/M EDV 99 mL
ESV 39 mL
EF 60%
Stroke volume 59 mL
EDV 81 mL (50.6 mL/m2)
ESV 52 mL (32.4 mL/m2)
RVEF 36%
Mildly-to-moderately dilated with dyskinesia and akinesis of the free wall adjacent to the right ventricular apex
T1, T2 and delayed gadolinium enhancement demonstrate two focal aneurysms in the free wall of RV
7/M Normal EF 58% EDV 171 mL (90 mL/m2)
ESV 93 mL (49 mL/m2)
EF 49%
Stroke volume 76 mL( 40 mL/m2)
Focal dyskinesia in the RVOT
Small patent ductus arteriosus measuring about 5 mm. Main pulmonary artery (MPA) not enlarged measuring 26 mm
8/M Normal EF 57% EDV 87 mL (43.5 mL/m2)
ESV 47 mL (23.5 mL/m2)
EF 46%
Mildly dilated with mild global hypokinesis
Focal aneurysm noted in RV free wall or RVOT
9/M Normal LV Moderately dilated RV and reduced RV function (CMRI was performed in another cardiac center and full report no available)
10/M EDV 110.5 mL (65 mL/m2)
ESV 49.3 mL (29 mL/m2)
EF 54%
EDV187.5 mL (105 mL/m2)
ESV 100 mL(59 mL/m2)
EF 44%
11/M EF 45-50% Quantification was not apparent at this point due to the poor ECG gating
Dilated at the RVOT, there is evidence of macroaneurysm with small microaneurysm noted at the RV apex with a large macroaneurysm noted at the RVOT and RV free wall with dyskinesis
Overall RV systolic function appeared to be mildly reduced
12/M EDV 80 mL
ESV 25 mL
EF 68%
EDV 74 mL
ESV 26 mL
EF 64%
Late gadolinium enhancement in mid myocardium at the septum

*Between practices values corrected for body size (value/body surface area (BSA)). EF: ejection fraction; EDV: end-diastolic volume; ESV: end-systolic volume mm millimeters; m2: square meter, TR: tricuspid valve. For the cardiac MRI major and minor criteria values, see reference [4].
