Association of left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony with survival benefit from revascularization: a study of gated positron emission tomography in patients with ischemic LV dysfunction and narrow QRS
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine & Molecular Imaging, 06/21/2012
AlJaroudi W et al. – LV mechanical dyssynchrony (LVMD) is an independent predictor of all–cause mortality in ischemic cardiomyopathy, and may identify patients with a differential survival benefit from coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) versus medical therapy.
