AB  - Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common cause of sudden death in 
      young patients, but current risk stratification strategies do not identify all 
      patients at risk. Contrast-enhanced cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) with 
      late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) can identify areas of abnormal myocardial 
      substrate comprising fibrosis, the structural nidus for potentially 
      life-threatening ventricular arrhythmias. More recently, follow-up studies have 
      demonstrated a strong relationship between extent of LGE in patients with HCM and 
      increased risk of adverse disease-related events, including sudden death.
