Figure

  • Figure 1 Echocardiographic and magnetic resonance images. (A, B) Mild thickening of posterolateral segment at the basal left ventricle on two-dimensional echocardiogram (arrow). (C, D) Improved wall thickening of the posterolateral segment at the basal left ventricle on two-dimensional echocardiogram (arrow). (E) Impaired circumferential strain at posterolateral wall on speckle tracking echocardiogram (arrow). (F) Abnormal circumferential strain values were improved at 2 weeks of follow-up speckle tracking echocardiogram. (G, H) Subepicardial delayed enhancement in basal inferior and posterolateral walls on cardiac magnetic resonance (arrow). (I) Increased native T1 value on cardiac magnetic resonance (arrow). (J) Increased T2 value on cardiac magnetic resonance (arrow).
