Figure 3. VNE and LGE image quality assessment on 346 test materials (124 patients).
(A) VNE provides significantly better image quality, assessed by four blinded operators and their average scores (all p<0.001). For cases with “uninterpretable” (red clusters) or “poor” (blue) LGE images, VNE provides superior imaging quality in all but one case (dashed line). (B) examples of image quality improvement by VNE, which has more consistent appearance and defined borders. Arrows point to the LGE artefacts.
