Cine and late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) CMR images of the patient at baseline. Panel A and B: cine (steady-state free precession sequence) CMR of short-axis (A) and 4-chamber (B) view showing normal left ventricular wall thickness. Panel C, D and E: T2-weighted short-TI inversion-recovery fast spin-echo image of short-axis (C), 4-chamber (D) and 3-chamber (E) view showing the absence of myocardial oedema. Panel F and G: contrast-enhanced inversion recovery gradient echo image of short-axis (F) and 3-chamber (G) view showing LGE involving the inferolateral wall with intramyocardial distribution (black arrow).
