Magnetic resonance imaging and computed tomography in assessing cardiac veins and scar tissue
Tijdschriftbijdrage - Tijdschriftartikel
The success of cardiac resynchronization therapy is influenced by several issues including cardiac venous anatomy and myocardial scar tissue. This article discusses non-invasive imaging modalities that could contribute significantly to the selection process of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) candidates: multi-slice computed tomography to depict the coronary sinus tributaries and magnetic resonance imaging to identify scar tissue.
