LGE Ischemic vs Non-Ischemic Pattern

Differentiate ischemic from non-ischemic cardiomyopathy using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) patterns on cardiac MRI: subendocardial/transmural (ischemic) vs mid-wall/epicardial (non-ischemic).

Clinical Guidance

BMI is a screening measure of body size, not a direct measure of body fat. The standard WHO categories are underweight (<18.5), normal (18.5–24.9), overweight (25–29.9), and obese (≥30).

BMI can overestimate body fat in athletes with high muscle mass and underestimate it in older adults with low muscle mass. Interpret it alongside waist circumference and clinical context rather than as a standalone diagnosis.

How It Works

Differentiate ischemic from non-ischemic cardiomyopathy using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) patterns on cardiac MRI: subendocardial/transmural (ischemic) vs mid-wall/epicardial (non-ischemic)

Each component has a specific meaning:

  • Non-ischemic cardiomyopathy — The non-ischemic cardiomyopathy recorded for the scenario being assessed.

Note: Interpret the lge pattern classification result against the thresholds and context described above.

How to Use

Enter the non-ischemic cardiomyopathy for the scenario you are assessing. Differentiate ischemic from non-ischemic cardiomyopathy using late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) patterns on cardiac MRI: subendocardial/transmural (ischemic) vs mid-wall/epicardial (non-ischemic). Use the lge pattern classification result to inform your calculation.
