The relation between cardiac 123I-mIBG scintigraphy and functional response 1 year after CRT implantation [PDF]
Cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) is a disease-modifying therapy in patients with chronic heart failure (CHF). Current guidelines ascribe CRT eligibility on three parameters only: left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF), QRS duration, and New ...
