Cardiac Magnetic Resonance for Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation and Risk Stratification
Ventricular tachycardia is the most frequent cause of sudden cardiovascular death in patients with structural heart disease. Radiofrequency ablation is the treatment cornerstone in this population.

Bidirectional ventricular tachycardia in cardiac sarcoidosis. [PDF]
A 73-year-old man with history of pulmonary sarcoidosis was found to have runs of non-sustained bidirectional ventricular tachycardia (BVT) with two different QRS morphologies on a Holter monitor.

Idiopathic Ventricular Tachycardia
Idiopathic ventricular tachycardia (VT) is an important cause of morbidity and less commonly, mortality in patients with structurally normal hearts. Appropriate diagnosis and management are predicated on an understanding of the mechanism, relevant cardiac anatomy, and associated ECG signatures. Catheter ablation is a viable strategy to adequately treat

Resetting of ventricular tachycardia: Implications for localizing the area of slow conduction [PDF]
Analysis of local endocardial electrograms recorded during reentrant ventricular tachycardia does not provide direct information as to the participation of the recording site in the tachycardia circuit.

The year in cardiology: arrhythmias and pacing. [PDF]
During this last year, there has been much progress with regard to anticoagulant and ablation therapy for atrial fibrillation (AF). Apart from recently issued European Society of Cardiology Guidelines for the management of patients with supraventricular ...

Atabrine in Ventricular Tachycardia [PDF]
The therapeutic efficacy of Atabrine in ventricular tachycardia has not yet been clearly demonstrated. In this case report, Atabrine stopped ventricular tachycardia and restored normal sinus rhythm following the fifth two-hourly oral dose of 0.30 Gm. Nausea and vomiting were the only toxic effects noted.

Accuracy of prediction of infarct-related arrhythmic circuits from image-based models reconstructed from low and high resolution MRI. [PDF]
Identification of optimal ablation sites in hearts with infarct-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) remains difficult to achieve with the current catheter-based mapping techniques.
