Figure 3

A case of typical TTC. (A, B) CMR images in the sub-acute phase show that the area of LGE was well matched with the area of wall motion abnormality as indicated by the arrows (A: cine CMR image during systole, B: LGE inversion recovery image). (C, D) Follow-up CMR images show that the LGE area ratio decreased gradually but remains in the chronic phase (C: 1.5 months after onset, D: 6 months after onset). CMR indicates cardiac magnetic resonance; LGE, late gadolinium enhancement; and TTC, Takotsubo cardiomyopathy.
