Figure 1 Cardiovascular magnetic resonance images from Patient #6. (Top) Pre- and postcontrast axial T1-weighted spin echo images of the same slice. Global relative enhancement was elevated (4.6). Regions of interest are drawn around the myocardium and within the skeletal muscle. (Middle) Short-axis T2-weighted images: no focal areas of high T2 signal, yet the higher global myocardial T2 signal in relation to the skeletal muscle is visibly appreciable (exact value = 2.5). (Bottom) Corresponding late enhancement images: no evidence of late gadolinium enhancement.
