Correlation of late gadolinium enhancement and T2-weighted (T2) imaging findings and histopathology in a 52 yo male undergoing cardiac transplantation. Region of increased T2 signal [A] demonstrates large vascular channels embedded within dense fibrosis (arrows), staining positive for lymphatic endothelium (right panel). A reference region of fibrosis without abnormal T2 signal [B] demonstrates only fibrosis with scant fat deposits.
