Non-ischemic causes of delayed myocardial hyperenhancement on MRI.
OBJECTIVE
Delayed contrast-enhanced cardiac MRI has been used to evaluate myocardial viability in ischemic heart disease (IHD). However, it can also be used in the assessment of non-ischemic cardiac diseases.


CONCLUSIONS
We illustrate a number of non-ischemic cardiac conditions and describe how they can be differentiated from IHD.
