Abstract
AIMS: Heterogeneous tissue channels (HTCs) detected by late gadolinium enhancement cardiac magnetic resonance (LGE-CMR) are related to ventricular arrhythmias, but there are few published data about their arrhythmogenic characteristics.
METHODS AND RESULTS: We enrolled 34 consecutive patients with ischaemic and non-ischaemic cardiomyopathy who were referred for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablati…
