Inaccurate boundary selection. Due to the absence of myocardial uptake and LV aneurysmal segments within the transmural scar, the software package inaccurately identified myocardial boundaries, an error which could not be remedied manually with standard tools within the SWP. This erroneous boundary detection led to a “spillover effect,” yielding falsely elevated MBF values in the scar. Bottom left corner is an echocardiogram with the LV aneurysm outlined in pink
