The myocardial ischemia evaluated by real-time contrast echocardiography may predict the response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: a large animal study.
Evidence-based criteria for applying cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) in patients with ischemic cardiomyopathy are still scarce. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the predictive value of real-time myocardial contrast echocardiography (RT-MCE) in a preclinical canine model of ischem...
