(A) Native T1 mapping and postcontrast images showing a region of interest (ROI) draw in the six basal segments with increased T1 native in all segments (1031 ± 23.7 ms) and postcontrast T1 mapping (469 ± 20.3 ms), and (B) T2 mapping image with value (54.1 ± 2.96 ms). Data are reported as mean ± SD (range). Cutoff value9: T1 native > 1000 ms, T2 native > 55.9 ms. The normal values at our centre: native T1 mapping = 998 ± 23.9 ms, enhanced T1 mapping = 420 ± 9 ms, T2 mapping = 54.6 ± 8.64 ms. ms, milliseconds. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) acquisition protocol included balanced steady-state free precession cine-MR (SSFP cine MR) images. Oedema CMR was performed by black–blood T2-weighted short tau inversion recovery (STIR) and T2 mapping. A dose of 0.2 mmol/kg Gadobutrol (Gd-DO3A-butrol, Gadovist; Bayer Healthcare, Leverkusen, Germany) was injected with a rate of 2.5 mL/s.
