title: [Extensive left ventricular myocardial fat deposition detected by cardiac MRI].
abstract: Although it is well known from pathological studies that intramyocardial fat deposition frequently occurs after left ventricular myocardial infarction, a left ventricular fat deposition is rarely diagnosed in the clinical routine. We report the case of extensive fat deposition in the left ventricular myocardium which was detected by routine cardiac magnetic resonance imaging.
