The role of real time three dimensional echocardiography to guide optimal lead positioning and improve response to cardiac resynchronization therapy: A prospective pilot study

Aims: A non-optimal resynchronization lead (RL) position is a possible cause of poor CRT response. The study aims to test the value of real-time-three-dimensional-echocardiography (RT3DE) for individual assessment of LV dyssynchrony and prospective evaluation of CRT response after RL implantation at...
