A. A 63-year-old woman with severe LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF, 28.0%) was adverse cardiac event-free for 5 years. LGE analysis by inversion recovery showed small, linear LGE (arrows) in the basal to mid-LV segment (LGE extent, 6.7 %LV). B. A 59-year-old man with severe LV systolic dysfunction (LVEF, 29.0%) experienced hospitalization for congestive heart failure followed by heart transplantation during the follow-up period. Baseline LGE analysis by inversion recovery showed extensive LGE (arrowheads) throughout the LV (LGE extent, 68 %LV). LGE = late gadolinium enhancement
