48-year-old woman (patient 10) with history of sustained ventricular tachycardia and echocardiographic diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Manual planimetry of left ventricle (LV) short axes revealed LV myocardial mass index of 178 g/m2. Turbo FLASH images after administration of gadopentetate dimeglumine in vertical long-axis (A) and short-axis (B) show diffuse, poorly demarcated late enhancement of midmyocardial layer of LV mid portion and apical portion (A; segments 7, 10, 13, and 15) and lateral and anterior walls (B; segments 7, 11, and 12).
