Cardiac magnetic resonance showing the absence of signs of acute inflammation
and scarring: (A) the 4-chamber view shows the lack of areas of late
gadolinium enhancement, (B) is represented an SSFP image in 4-chamber view.
(C) is reported a short axis native T1 mapping, with the ROI in the septum
showing a value of 1019 +- 27 msec (normal < 1010 msec), and (D)
post-contrast T1 allowed an estimate of the extracellular volume of
28 +- 2%.

Cardiac Magnetic Resonance (CMR) excluded focal myocardial inflammation and focal fibrosis; parametric sequences showed slightly elevated values of native T1 and ECV, globally suggestive for the presence of mild and diffused interstitial fibrosis (Figure 1).
CT coronary angiography showing normal anatomy in right dominance and absence
of significant atherosclerotic lesions: (A) left anterior descending
coronary artery, (B) left circumflex coronary artery and (C) posterior
descending coronary artery.
