Assessment of stable coronary artery disease by cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging: Current and emerging techniques

Figure 4 Early and late gadolinium enhancement. A and B show a lateral sub-endocardial infarction on short axis and 4 chamber LGE respectively; C and D show a full thickness inferior infarction on LGE imaging on short axis and VLA respectively; E and F show EGE and LGE imaging respectively of a full thickness apical infarction with an apical thrombus appearing black (highlighted by red arrow); G shows an extensive acute antero-apical infarction with a core of microvascular obstruction visible within the hyperenhancement on EGE (red arrow); H shows an acute inferior wall infarction with MVO and extension into the right ventricle on LGE (red arrow) imaging. LGE: Late gadolinium enhancement; EGE: Early gadolinium enhancement; MVO: Mitral orifice.
