Epicardial conduction abnormalities in patients with Arrhythmogenic Right Ventricular Cardiomyopathy (ARVC) and mutation positive healthy family members - A study using electrocardiographic imaging.

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The diagnosis of arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC) in early stages is challenging. The aim of this study was therefore to investigate whether electrocardiographic imaging (ECGI) can detect epicardial conduction changes in ARVC patients and healthy mutation-carriers (M-carriers). METHOD: Twelve ARVC patients, 20 M-carriers and 8 controls underwent 12-lead ECG, signal-averaged ECG,...
