We performed segment by segment analysis for comprehensive evaluation of the characteristics of the left ventricular (LV) myocardium by multislice CT (MSCT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) and positron emission tomography (PET) in a patient with...
