BACKGROUNDElectrophysiological mapping of ventricular tachycardia (VT) is tedious and poorly reproducible. Substrate analysis on imaging cannot explicitly display VT circuits. OBJECTIVESThis study sought to introduce a computed tomography-based model personalization approach, allowing for the simulation of postinfarction VT in a clinically...

Aims Clinical application of patient-specific cardiac computer models requires fast and robust processing pipelines that can be seamlessly integrated into clinical workflows. We aim at building such a pipeline from computed tomography (CT) images to personalised cardiac electrophysiology (EP) model. The simulation output could be useful in the...

Image Integration-Guided VT Ablation. Background: Although multi-detector computed tomog-raphy (MDCT) and cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) can assess the structural substrate of ventricular tachycardia (VT) in ischemic cardiomyopathy (ICM), non-ICM (NICM), and arrhythmogenic right ventric-ular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), the usefulness of systematic...
