Cardiovascular manifestations of COVID-19 on cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR). Clockwise from the top: (1) A patient diagnosed with acute myocarditis, found to have midmyocardial late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in the inferior and inferoseptal walls, with increased T2 relaxation times in the inferior wall (white arrows). (2) A patient with subendocardial LGE in the mid to distal septum and apex, found to have an occlusion in the mid left anterior descending artery on coronary angiography (red arrows). (3) Globally increased native T1 and T2 relaxation times in a patient with multisystem inflammatory syndrome. (4) A patient diagnosed with stress cardiomyopathy, with thickening of the basal segments (white arrows) and akinesis of apex (asterisk) seen on cine imaging. (5) A patient diagnosed with acute pericarditis, found to have diffuse LGE in the pericardium (red arrows) and a pericardial effusion (asterisk)
