Figure 4 Prognostic Value of MRI Delayed Enhancement
Kaplan-Meier survival estimates for the primary end point of all-cause mortality or hospitalization due to cardiovascular causes. Data are adjusted for baseline differences in age, left ventricular (LV) end-systolic volume, LV end-diastolic volume, LV ejection fraction, right ventricular ejection fraction, and treatment with digoxin. Lower blue/black line indicates patients with late gadolinium enhancement; upper red line indicates patients without late gadolinium enhancement; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging.
