In patients with left ventricular systolic dysfunction, the primary diagnostic issue is to differentiate the underlying cause whether related to coronary artery disease or dilated cardiomyopathy, for which coronary angiography was often used. Delayed enhancement-magnetic resonance imaging (DE-MRI) is a valuable technique to identify myocardial tissue characteristics through retention of gadolinium in areas with reduced density of viable myocytes so appear enhancing bright
