Why the study?
What is the diagnostic utility of LGE-CMR in patients with tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy caused by idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias?
What is the diagnostic utility of LGE-CMR in patients with tachycardia-induced cardiomyopathy caused by idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias?
LGE-CMR can be utilized in the diagnostic work-up of TICMP, although LGE itself is a rare finding in cases caused by idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias.
LGE-CMR may aid TICMP etiology assessment; leaves open its incremental diagnostic value in idiopathic VA cases.
LGE is a rare finding in patients with TICMP caused by idiopathic ventricular arrhythmias. LGE-CMR can be used in the diagnostic work-up of patients with TICMP. Further prospective studies are required to determine the role of LGE-CMR in predicting the recovery of left ventricular systolic dysfunction in patients with presumptive TICMP.
