Figure 1 Two-dimensional slice from the delayed enhancement–magnetic resonance imaging scan shows massive delayed enhancement in the anterior (A) and posterior (B) walls of the left atrium. An electroanatomic map shows large patches of low bipolar voltage (<0.05 mV) in the anterior wall and septum (C), interspersed with electrically abnormal tissue (0.0 5 mV < bipolar voltage <1 mV) in the posterior wall and roof (D).
