  Figure 1 Cardiac MRI: (A) 4 chamber cine image, IVS thickness: 16.5 mm; (B) T1 mapping, native T1 value: 1,505±82 ms; (C) ECV mapping, SAX view, ECV fraction: 40±3%; (D) ECV mapping, 4CH view, ECV fraction: 40±4%; (E) LGE image, mid-LV: diffused spotty LGE; follow-up cardiac MRI: (F) 4 chamber cine image, IVS thickness: 10.3 mm; (G) T1 mapping, native T1 value: 1,287±81ms; (H) ECV mapping, SAX view, ECV fraction: 24±3%; (I) ECV mapping, 4CH view, ECV fraction: 25±6%; (J) LGE image, mid-LV: no LGE.ECV = extracellular volume; IVS = interventricular septum; LGE = late gadolinium enhancement; MRI = magnetic resonance imaging.
