T2-Weighted Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Edema in Myocardial Diseases

Figure 2

63-year-old female with myocardial infarction. Short-axis delayed-enhancement MRI (a) shows myocardial infarction at the inferior myocardium (arrows) and the anterior myocardium (arrowhead). Short-axis T2-weighted cardiac MRI (b) shows only myocardial edema associated with acute myocardial infarction in the inferior myocardium and right ventricular myocardium (arrows) that are consistent with blood supply from the right coronary artery.
