RecurrentIschemiaPost-Revascularization (1) • 43-year-old womanwithrecenthistory of CAD,with LAD stent for ACS complicatedwith LM dissection, urgent CABG (GSV end-to-side LAD, GSV side-to-sideramusangularis, GSD end-to-sideLCx). Recurrentexercise-relatedinterscapularchest pain. • Cardiac MRI shows normal LV volumes (EDV 166 ml) and function (EF 56%) at rest (left panel) butextensive and long-lastingperfusion defect duringpersantine stress (segments 1,2,6,7,8,11,12,13,14). Real-timecine MRI (right panel) immediatelyafterperfusion MRI shows severedysfunction in non-enhancedmycardialregions. Late Gd imaging shows smal(ler) transmural enhancement in anterolateral wall (segments 1,7,12). • Cardiac catheterization shows occlusion of LAD and venous graft to LAD with filling of distal LAD by RCA collaterals, slow flow in venous graft to LCx.
RecurrentIschemiaPost-Revascularization (2) Stress perfusionimaging at 2 short-axislevels (a,b) shows extensiveanterior (includinganteroseptum and lateralwall, arrows, a,b). Cineimagingperformedimmediatelyfollowing stress perfusionimaging shows severelyimpairedmyocardialcontractility (due to myocardialischemia) in the hypo-perfusedmyocardium (arrows, c,d).
‘Fixed’ Perfusion Defect 45-year-old man withhistory of PCI for LAD stenosis (2006), MRI performed to ruleinducibleischemia. Though LV volumes and function at rest are normal (EDV 115 ml – EF 60%), the basal and mid LV inferolateral wall show mild hypokinesia. During both rest perfusion (left middle panel) and persantine stress perfusion (right middle panel) presence of subendocardial perfusion defect in the inferolateral wall, and corresponds nicely with the zone of subendocardial enhancement on late Gd imaging (arrow, right panel). The perfusionabnormalities are causedbylowercapillarydensity in the scarredmyocardium and notby a trueperfusion defect.
Comprehensive MRI in IHD (1) 46-year-old patientwithmulti-vessel CAD and recent history of NSTEMI. Cardiaccatherization shows occlusion of mid RCA and 2nd lateralbranchLCx. Non-stenotic CAD in LAD. RCA fillingby LAD collaterals. PCI 2nd lateralbranchLCx. LV EDV 215 ml – SV 111 ml – EF 52%. Mild thinning of the LV mid anterolateral wallshowing mild to moderate hypokinesia.
Comprehensive MRI in IHD (2) • STRESS MPI • REST MPI
Comprehensive MRI in IHD (3) Rest MPI(previousslide) shows a perfusion ‘defect’ in the LV anterolateral wall, corresponding to the area of enhancementon late Gd imaging. Stress MPI shows extensive and long-lastingperfusion defect in LV inferiorwall (segments 3,4,9,10,15). Late Gd imaging (suboptimal image quality) shows almost complete transmural enhancement of the LV anterolateral wall (segments 6,12,16). Findings of anterolateral transmural MI, and extensivestress-inducedperfusion defect in RCA territory. Rest cardiac volumes/functionwithinnormallimits.
InducibleMyocardialIschemia 60-year-old man withhistory of PCI (stent) in proximal LAD and re-stenosis. Coronaryangiography shows 60% stenosis in proximal LAD withcollateralsfromLCx to LAD. FFR > 0.75. Cardiac MRI shows normal LV volumes (EDV 198 ml) and function (EF 73%). Severelydecreasedwall motion and wallthickened in LV midanteriorwallduring 40 gamma dobutamine. Though FFR values are withinnormallimits, stress dobutamine MRI clearly shows inducibleischemia in midanteriorwall. rest 20 gamma dobutamine 40 gamma dobutamine
Post-MIAneurysm 63-year-old patientwithpreviousinferiorwallinfarction. Cineimaging shows relativelybroad-basedaneurysmwithextensivewallthinning and dyskineticwall motion. Strong enhancement of the aneurysmalwallon late Gd imaging. Aneurysmal volume 235 ml. Aneurysmalneck: 68x70 mm. LV EDV 448 ml – EF 18%.

FalseAneurysm Post MI 85-year-old man withhistory of lateral MI. LV EDV 211 ml – SV 58 ml – EF 27%. Presence of largeaneurysm (24x43x43mm) arisingfrom LV laterobasalwall (arrows), withpresence of a muralthrombus (arrowhead). The aneurysm is pulsatile, and enhanceson late Gd imaging. Because of the patient’sageconservativetreatment. The findings favor the presence of a false and not a trueaneurysmwith complete rupture of the myocardialwall, containedbypericardialadhesions.
Aneurysm Post Surgery for Aortic Coarctation 33-year-old womanwithDacronpatchangioplasty for aortic coarctation (1981, age 5 years).

GiantAorticAneurysm 42-year-old man withhistory of surgery for aortic coarctation and bicuspid AV. Follow up cardiac US shows dilatedascending aorta. Cardiac MRI shows extensivedilatation of the ascending aorta (85 mm) withnormalization of the diameter distally. No evidence of aneurysmformationor stenosis at the coarctation site. Functionallybicuspid AV withsevere AR (regurgitant fraction 41%) and secondary LV volume overload. Bentallsurgery

The truelumen is the smalllumenlocatedanteromedially. Both lumen are patent. The size of the aneurysm is relativelystable over time (increase of 5 mm over a period of 10 years).
CardiacParaganglioma 68-year-old man withlargeparacardiacmass, compressing the LA. Though the mass has a relativelyhomogeneousappearanceon T1w-imaging (left panel), cineimaging (left, middle panel), perfusionimaging (right, middle panel) and late Gd imaging (right panel) show inhomogeneousappearancewithstrongperipheralenhancement and central non enhancementrepresentingliquefactionnecrosis.
