A New Methodology for Multiscale Myocardial Deformation and Strain Analysis Based on Tagging MRI
Figure 2
Color-coded strain fields in short axis mid-slice cross-sections, time frames (a full heart cycle subtends frames), regularized through Gaussian convolution with spatial scale , for one healthy volunteer. First row: Circumferential strain . Second row: Radial strain . Third row: Shear strain . Fourth row: Minimal strain eigenvalue . Fifth row: Maximal strain eigenvalue .
