LGE displaying a typical pattern of enhancement in a myosin binding protein C3 mutation carrier with normal LV wall thickness. A. Midventricular LV short axis orientation on which enhancement is visible at the superior and inferior insertion point of the right ventricle into the septum (white arrowheads). These areas often typically display enhancement in manifest HCM patients. Image 1B was planned perpendicular to the inferior area of enhancement as indicated by the dashed line. B. Modified 2 chamber LGE image through the inferoseptum. The area of enhancement is indicated by the white arrowheads and is located in the midwall of the inferoseptum, extending towards the apex. * = anterolateral papillary muscle, LA = left atrium, LV = left ventricle, RV = right ventricle
