Depicts septal hypertrophy (arrow) and moderate pericardial effusion (arrowhead) in a female patient in mid-ventricular short-axis SSFP imaging (a). In LGE imaging (b) of the same slice no sufficient nulling of the myocardium (arrow) in contrast to the blood pool (star) was possible due to diffuse LGE in diffuse fibrosis without remote and healthy myocardium. The finding may be misinterpreted as technical failure. LGE: Late Gadolinium Enhancement; SSFP: Steady State Free Precession
