Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) increases over time for patients with DMD. Early onset LGE may be used as a prognostic factor since cardiac function has been shown to decline more rapidly for these patients.[5]
LGE assessments can be done on each of the cardiovascular segments as shown in Figure 1.[6]

The SDTM examples in this section show the findings of a CMR imaging procedure with late gadolinium enhancement. The level of granularity varies with the type of test used; research requirements will determine what level of granularity is needed.
