Figure 7

SAX and VLA images from patient # 1. Coronary angiography confirmed >90% occlusion of RCA. STIR images (1st column) did not show hyperintensity in inferior regions. In addition, the VLA images show high signal from static endocardial blood. Similarly, the infarcted region could not be detected in T2p-SSFP image with T2p = 55 ms (column 2). T2 maps (column 3) demonstrate increased T2 in the inferior regions (see Table 5) and the endocardial borders are clearly demarcated. LGE images (column 4) show the location and extent of the infarct. S = Signal Intensity.
