ROIs	Fibre number	FA
LVFW
Base	795	0.72 ± 0.06a,b
Equator	330	0.75 ± 0.04a,b
Apex	1284	0.70 ± 0.03a,b
RVFW
Base	339	0.74 ± 0.05a,b
Equator	169	0.77 ± 0.03a,b

Results are expressed as mean ± SD

^aOne-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed statistical significance between the base, equator and apex within the ventricle p < 0.05

^bOne-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) revealed statistical significance between equivalent regions across the ventricles p < 0.05
