Extracellular volume (ECV) calculation using the single-energy attenuation-based and the spectral method in a 77-year-old male patient. ECV was not elevated with a mean ECV of 23.5% and 22.4% using the attenuation-based and spectral method, respectively. No focal scar was seen, which was confirmed by previous CMR. Abbreviations: Ht, hematocrit; ΔHUmyo, change in attenuation of the myocardium; ΔHUblood, change in attenuation of the blood pool; [Iodinemyo], iodine concentration within the myocardium; [Iodineblood], iodine concentration within the blood pool
