T2-Weighted Cardiac Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Edema in Myocardial Diseases
Figure 5
73-year-old female with cardiac sarcoidosis presenting with lower ejection fraction and conduction disturbance. Short-axis delayed-enhancement MRI (a) shows abnormal enhancement consistent with the edema (arrow) as well as the septal mesocardial myocardial scarring (arrowhead). T2-weighted cardiac MRI (b) shows myocardial edema at the transmural myocardium of the inferior region (arrow).
