Figure 4. Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging Findings Demonstrative of Myocarditis of Patient 2.

Figure 4

Cardiac MRI A-C for patient 2; A) Late gadolinium enhancement imaging (PSIR-LGE) demonstrative of confluent mid-wall and subepicardial myocardial fibrosis in the basal-anterior, basal-septal, and basal-inferior walls. B) T2 parametric map demonstrative of elevated myocardial T2 values in the same distribution as myocardial fibrosis. C) Extracellular volume (ECV) parametric mapping demonstrative of elevated myocardial ECV in the anterior, septal, and inferior walls. The presence of T1 and T2 changes fulfills the Lake Louise criteria to establish a diagnosis of myocarditis.
