T1-weighted magnetic resonance imaging shows fatty deposition after myocardial infarction

Pathologic studies have shown an increased lipid content in areas of myocardial infarction (MI). We sought to show the ability of precontrast T1‐weighted MRI to noninvasively detect fat deposition in MI and show its association with infarct age. Thirty‐two patients with MI were studied. Precontrast...
