Abstract

While both PSIR LGE and MCODE were good in identifying MI, MCODE demonstrated more subendocardial MI's than LGE and identified a larger number of infarcted sectors. The simultaneous acquisition of T1 and T2-weighted images improved differentiation of blood pool from enhanced subendocardial MI.
