Mapping and Surgical Ablation of Focal Epicardial Left Ventricular Tachycardia
Figure 4
After ablation, a cardiac MRI study was performed. MRI images showed a slightly dilated left ventricle. End diastolic LV volume was 213 mL. End systolic LV volume was 112 mL. Stroke volume was 101 mL, LVEF was 47% and IVSDd was 11 mm. Gadolinium was used to evaluate myocardial perfusion. At the apicolateral side of the LV, a small area with transmural late enhancement was identified.
