Key result
Post-ablation LGE-CMR demonstrated that a reduction in conducting channels of <55% predicted ventricular tachycardia recurrence with 100% sensitivity and 61% specificity.
Why the study?
Does post-ablation LGE-CMR identify conducting channel modifications that predict ventricular tachycardia recurrence in patients undergoing scar-related VT ablation?
Does post-ablation LGE-CMR identify conducting channel modifications that predict ventricular tachycardia recurrence in patients undergoing scar-related VT ablation?
Post-ablation LGE-CMR provides novel insights into structural changes and may help predict VT recurrence by identifying residual conducting channels.

Pranav Bhagirath (2023) conducted an editorial in Ventricular tachycardia (VT). Late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) was evaluated on Predictive accuracy of conducting channel reduction for VT recurrence. Post-ablation LGE-CMR demonstrated that a reduction in conducting channels of <55% predicted ventricular tachycardia recurrence with 100% sensitivity and 61% specificity.
