  1. Values were acquired on 3 Tesla Scanners. Values are presented as the mean ± SD, number (%). Numbers in boldface indicate P values < 0.05.
  2. *P value across the 3 groups.
  3. H-LVH = hypertension induced left ventricular hypertrophy; HCM = hypertrophic cardiomyopathy; and ECV = extracellular volume.
