Fig. 4A. 72-year-old man 12 days after acute myocardial infarction (MI) that was detected quantitatively but not visually. Contrast-enhanced chest CT image of heart shows subtle decrease in enhancement of left ventricular apex in location of acute MI. Area of decreased attenuation was not detected visually.
