Validation of model predicted strain against MRI. (A) A slice of the model equivalent to the plane acquired in tagged MRI was extracted, and circumferential strain in this slice was evaluated from the model predicted deformations. (B) Model predicted circumferential strain was averaged over the slice and plotted over systole (red). These strains were compared with strains evaluated from tagged MRI (blue). This validation was performed for cases 3 and 4 only, as no tagged MRI was acquired in cases 1 and 2.
