Significant advances in cancer treatment have resulted in decreased cancer related
mortality for many malignancies with some cancer types now considered chronic diseases …

Aims Non-invasive depiction of conducting channels (CCs) is gaining interest for its
usefulness in ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation. The best imaging approach has not been …

Myocardial fibrosis detected via delayed-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has
been shown to be a strong indicator for ventricular tachycardia (VT) inducibility. However …

Aims Myocardial infarction (MI) alters cardiac fibre organization with unknown
consequences on ventricular arrhythmia. We used diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) of three …

Wnt/β-catenin signaling is activated in the heart after myocardial infarction (MI). This study
aims to investigate if β-catenin deletion affects post-MI ion channel gene alterations and …

Delayed gadolinium-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) imaging requires
novel and time-efficient approaches to characterize the myocardial substrate associated with …

Background Myocardial scar burden quantification is an emerging clinical parameter for risk
stratification of sudden cardiac death and prediction of ventricular arrhythmias in patients …

After a myocardial infarction, the affected areas of the cardiac tissue suffer changes in their
electrical and mechanical properties. This post-infarction scar tissue has been related with a …

Sudden cardiac death (SCD) remains a major public health problem and there is an urgent
need to maximize the impact of primary prevention using the implantable defibrillator. While …

We appreciated reading the paper by Ibrahim et al.[1] describing the impact of K2 abuse on
sudden cardiac death (SCD). This paper, although it provides interesting information about …
