(LV and Hepatic Masses). Sections A and B are vertical long axis images of the left ventricle (LV). Section A shows the bright signal from the large basal inferior wall mass (arrow) using T2-STIR. Section B shows the patchy signal from the large basal inferior wall mass (arrow) using LGE. Sections C and D are short axis images of the heart at the level of the basal inferior LV mass and the liver. Section C shows that the bright signal from the LV mass (3 thin arrows) is similar to the bright signal from the hepatic masses (3 bold arrows) using the same T2-STIR sequence. Section D shows the patchy signal from the LV mass (3 thin arrows), its proximity to the posterior mitral valve leaflet, the enhanced mitral valve orifice and the patchy signal from the hepatic masses (3 bold arrows) using a LGE. The distinct border between tumor and myocardium is clear using T2-STIR.
