Cardiac resynchronization therapy guided by late gadolinium-enhancement cardiovascular magnetic resonance

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Myocardial scarring at the LV pacing site leads to incomplete resynchronization and a suboptimal symptomatic response to CRT. We sought to determine whether the use of late gadolinium cardiovascular magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) to gu...
