Cardiac Positron Emission Tomography for Detection of Cardiac Sympathetic Dysinnervation to Guide Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia
Imaging is to be performed prior to procedure using positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (PET/CT), after a special dye is injected. The scans are going to be merged with other cardiac scans when doing the ablation procedure to correlate anatomy with physiology.
Bevonási feltételek: Clinical indication for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation (at least one clinical episode of sustained VT) despite antiarrhythmic drug therapy, or if the patient does not wish to be on one; Ischemic or nonischemic cardiomyopathy; Sustained monomorphic VT.
Kizáró feltételek: General contraindications to VT ablation, e.g., major contraindication to anticoagulation therapy, known presence of left ventricular thrombus, reversible causes of VT or VF; Polymorphic VT or ventricular fibrillation (VF) being the sole detected clinical arrhythmia; Recent myocardial infarction less than 30 days; Right ventricular VT; Patient is unable to sign informed consent; Recent ablation for ventricular tachycardia less than 30 days; Patient is unwilling or unable to cooperate with the study; Prosthetic mitral or aortic valve; General contraindications to PET imaging, e.g., pregnancy or lactation; General contraindication to magnetic resonance imaging or to the administration of gadolinium; Contraindication to the placement of hemodynamic support devices, i.e. the presence of mechanical valves or lack of adequate vascular access.
