Popis: Background The burden and location of replacement fibrosis by Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE) MRI is a recognized predictor of non-response in patients undergoing cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). However, the capacity of the non-scarred tissue to respond favorably is felt to be dependent upon incremental factors. In this study we explored the utility of 4D strain analysis of non-scarred myocardial tissue to predict response to CRT.
