Correlation between septal midwall late gadolinium enhancement on CMR and conduction delay on ECG in patients with nonischemic dilated cardiomyopathy

ConclusionIn DCM-patients, QRS-prolongation and septal midwall LGE are frequently present and often co-exist. However, they are not correlated. This suggests that the assessment of LGE-CMR has complementary value to ECG evaluation in the clinical assessment and risk stratification of DCM-patients.
