Hyperintensity artefact (red arrow) suggesting an epicardial scar in the anterolateral wall segment (a) in a patient without LGE as shown in the same view after image optimisation by the wide-band LGE (wb-LGE) technique (d). Hyperintensity artefact suggesting an ischemic pattern of myocardial damage in the inferolateral wall (b, red arrow); disappearance of this artefact and unmasking of an epicardial LGE using the wb-LGE technique (e, blue arrow). Minimization of the hyperintensity artefact in the inferolateral wall segments (c, red arrow) by inspiration and unmasking of an intramural LGE (f, blue arrow)
