Low septal to lateral wall 18F-FDG ratio is highly associated with mechanical dyssynchrony in non-ischemic CRT candidates
Abstract Background In order to better understand the concept of mechanical dyssynchrony, a promising hallmark of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) response, we investigated its effect on regional myocardial metabolism and myocardial blood flow (MBF) in non-ischemic CRT candidates. Results Thi...
