[Novel Application of Post-contrast Tmap for Detection of Subendocardial Infarction].

In cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) for myocardial infarction, there have been quite a few cases of obscure image contrast between subendocardial lesion and left ventricular (LV) blood pool on late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) images. This study was motivated by confirmation of usefulness of post-contrast Tmap for detection of subendocardial infarction. From June 2017 to May 2018, forty-eight consecutive patients who underwent contrast-enhanced CMR to assess myocardial infarction were reviewed.
