This disease is characterized by replacement of fatty and fibrous tissue in the myocardium. These fatty myocardial tissue has never been detectable employing the convenient noninvasive technique. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a nobel approch to detected the fatty tissue nonivasively as a documentation of high signal intensity. Thus, five male cases of ARVD were offered to illustrate the lesion of the myocardium with MRI technique. Two cases of ARVD documented the high signal intensity in the endocardium of posterior intraventricular septum and the intensity expanded up to the right ventricle. These lesion were proven as fatty tissue by histology in either operation and/or the autopsy. The other 3 cases, the fatty lesion was not demonstrable. But, abnormal architecture and function:dilated right ventricle and right atrium, diffuse hypokinesis of the right ventricular wall and tricuspidal regugitation were shown in this MRI approach. In concluaion, MRI can contribute to detected the fatty lesion of ARVD noninvasively.}, pages = {754--760}, title = {不整脈源性右室異形成(ARVD)の磁気共鳴画像(MRI)}, volume = {106}, year = {1992} }
