Pre-procedural image-guided versus non-image-guided ventricular tachycardia ablation-a review.
CONCLUSIONS: Image-guided VT ablation in ischaemic VT was associated with a significant benefit in VT-free and overall survival as compared with conventional VT ablation. Visualising myocardial scar facilitates substrate-guided ablation procedures, pre-procedurally and by integrating imaging during the procedure, and may consequently improve long-term outcome.
