  • Title: CMR-determined scar volume: predictive for ventricular tachycardias?
    Author: van der Wall EE, Zeppenfeld K, Bax JJ, Siebelink HM, Schalij MJ.
    Journal: Int J Cardiovasc Imaging; 2011 Oct; 27(7):989-93. PubMed ID: 21061171.
    Abstract:
    The interesting data reported by Bernhardt et al. strengthen the diagnostic benefit of CMR in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy. Consequently, the presence, location and size of the CMR-determined scar tissue may be used for better risk stratification in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy eligible for ICD therapy.
