Severe idiopathic pulmonary hypertension in a 28 year-old man; pulmonary arterial pressure at right catheterisation was 70 mmHg. Focal areas of hyperintense signal are observed at the level of both ventricular junctions on STIR T2WI (a, arrows) matching mesocardial spots of late enhancement in the same location (b, arrows). Severe concentric RV hypertrophy is observed on short-axis cine-SSFP end-systole image with flattening and inversion of the interventricular septum during contraction (c)
