Figure 3 Inversion-recovery prepared T1-weighted gradient echo images with typical late enhancement patterns in a patient with chronic myocarditis. (Left) Short-axis view with "midwall sign" (arrows), which likely represents fibrosis of the longitudinal myocardial fibers in the septum. (Right) Four-chamber view with patchy late enhancement areas with predominant subepicardial, mainly lateral distribution (arrows).
