The feature tracking analysis of the left atrium and assessment of left ventricular extracellular volume fraction (ECV). Tracking of left atrial motion (A), global longitudinal strain (B, upper panel), and phasic volumes (B, lower panel). Endocardial, epicardial borders and cavity tracings and segmentation in native T1 map (C) and post-T1 map (E). The reconstructed color coded ECV map (D) and its 16-segmental values in the bull′s eye map (F). LA, left atrial; GLS, global longitudinal strain; LAV-max, maximal LA volume; LAV-min, minimal LA volume; LAV-preA, LA volume at the pre-atrial contraction phase
