Viability assessment in a 57-year-old man with LAD territory MI in STEMI. (A) Transmural LGE in base to midpart of the anteroseptal wall of LV. (B) Contouring of the LV wall for T1 and T2 evaluation. (C) High T1 values (T1 = 1043 ms) in the base to mid-segment of the anteroseptal LV wall due to septal fibrosis. (D) Polar map of T1-weighted LV wall showing an increased T1 value in the septal wall. (E) Polar map of T2-weighted LV wall showing normal T2 values in the septal wall (T2 = 48 ms).
