Table 4 Comparison of Metrics in Post-MI Patients versus Normal Subjects by Echo Indexed to Body Surface Area*: Means (SD)

From: Cardiac magnetic resonance versus transthoracic echocardiography for the assessment of cardiac volumes and regional function after myocardial infarction: an intrasubject comparison using simultaneous intrasubject recordings

Metric (unit) Post-MI (N = 47) Normals12*

LV ESVI* (ml/m2) 27 (13) 22 (5)
LV SVI* (ml/m2) 25 (12) 22.5†
LV EF (%) 47 (11) 60 (6)
