Representative first-pass myocardial perfusion MR images (A1, B1 and C1), signal intensity-time curves (A2, B2 and C2) obtained from the left mid‑ventricular slice, and longitudinal stain pseudocolour images (A3–4, B3–4, C3–4) and curves (A5, B5, C5) in a normal control (A1–5), a T2DM patient without DPN (B1–5), and a T2DM patient with DPN (C1–5). A3, B3 and C3 end diastole; A4, B4 and C4 end systole; A5, B5, C5 LV global longitudinal peak strain curve. T2DM type 2 diabetes mellitus, DPN diabetic peripheral neuropathy, max SI maximum signal intensity, TTM time-to-maximum signal intensity, GLS global longitudinal strain
