From: Increased myocardial native T1 and extracellular volume in patients with Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Example cardiac MRI images. 1) Healthy control without late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) (a), normal native T1 (b), and ECV (c) values. 2) Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) participant with significant LGE (d) (arrows); native T1 map (e) demonstrates increased T1; ECV map (f) demonstrates similar areas of elevated ECV (arrows) as the LGE. 3) LGE image in DMD participant without LGE (g) but with diffusely elevated native T1 (h) and ECV (i) suggesting extracellular matrix expansion
