Semiautomated LGE cardiovascular MR gray-scale thresholding with 6 SDs above the mean provides a highly reproducible approximation of LGE extent in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy patients.
Does semiautomated LGE cardiovascular MR gray-scale thresholding with ≥6 SDs accurately quantify LGE compared to visual assessment in patients with HCM?

Semiautomated LGE cardiovascular MR thresholding at ≥6 SDs provides an objective and highly reproducible method for quantifying LGE in patients with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy.
Semiautomated LGE cardiovascular MR gray-scale thresholding with 6 or more SDs above the mean signal intensity for the visually normal remote myocardium yields the closest approximation of the extent of LGE identified with visual assessment and is highly reproducible. This objective method should be considered for quantifying LGE in patients with HCM.
