CMR of a 54-year male, carrier of p.Arg401His missense LMNA mutation, affected by DCM. (a-b) Four chamber and RV long axis SSFP images show biventricular dilation, bulging of the RV free wall (white arrow, panel a-b) and diaphragmatic wall (white arrow, panel b). (c) Two chamber T1-weighted and (d) fat suppressed T1-weighted slices showing LV fatty replacement of mid lateral wall (white arrow). (e) IR LGE slice showing fibrosis in the infero-lateral wall (with focal transmural pattern) and in the interventricular septum (image quality was due to respiratory artifacts and to the presence of pacemaker [*]). CMR: cardiac magnetic resonance. DCM: dilated cardiomyopathy. SSFP: steady-state free precession. LV-RV: left-right ventricle. IR LGE: inversion recovery late gadolinium enhancement
