Figure 3

Example of signal pattern of calcification and lipid rich necrotic core (LRNC) in multi-contrast weighted CMR. (a) The calcification shows low intensity signal on all four contrast weightings (arrowhead) (b) The typical image pattern of LRNC is iso-intensity on TOF, iso/high-intensity on T1WI and low intensity on PD and T2WI. In the posterior vessel wall of superficial femoral artery, a crescent shaped LRNC can be identified (arrowhead).
