Examples of the presence of LGE, extent of histopathological MF, and septal longitudinal strain. Three cases displaying vary degree of histopathological fibrosis. (A) LGE(−)MF(−). The case showed the absence of LGE and the septal strain parameters at the normal range. (B) LGE(−)MF(+). The case showed the absence of LGE but the septal strain parameters impaired. (C) LGE(+)MF(+). The case showed the presence of LGE and the septal strain parameters impaired. LGE, late gadolinium enhancement; MF, myocardial fibrosis.
