MRI can reveal a two-layered appearance of noncompacted ventricular myocardium, with signal intensity differences that may indicate myocardial damage.
Daimon et al. (2002) conducted a case report in Isolated noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium (n=1). Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) was evaluated on MRI appearance of the ventricular myocardium. Magnetic resonance imaging in a patient with isolated noncompaction of the ventricular myocardium revealed a distinct two-layered appearance of the myocardium on T2-weighted and contrast-enhanced scans.
