CMR study before PCI in a patient with a CTO in the mid-LAD coronary artery and no other significant coronary stenosis, but a history of previous inferior ST-elevation myocardial infarction with mid RCA stent implantation. a Stress perfusion images showing an inducible defect in mid-apical anterior and anteroseptal segments (white arrow). b Resting perfusion images showing no perfusion defects. c LGE study showing transmural enhancement in mid-inferior segment (>75 % transmural extension) (white arrow). Absence of enhancement in basal, mid, and apical antero-septal segments
