ASSESSMENT OF LEFT VENTRICULAR CONTRACTION PATTERNS USING GATED SPECT MPI TO IMPROVE CARDIAC RESYNCHRONIZATION THERAPY RESPONSE
2017
Background
The U-shaped left ventricular (LV) contraction pattern, identified by MRI or echocardiography, is associated with improved CRT response. Gated SPECT MPI can measure both myocardial viability and mechanical dyssynchrony in a single scan. The aim of this study is to examine the relationship of the LV contraction pattern and the response of CRT in patients with left bundle branch block (LBBB).
