Abstract excerpt
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to identify the incremental value and optimal role of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging in arrhythmic risk stratification of arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy (ARVD/C)-associated desmosomal mutation carriers without histories of sustained ventricular arrhythmia. BACKGROUND: Risk stratification of ARVD/C mutation carriers is challenging. METHODS:...
