Abstract

Ventricular tachycardia (VT), which can lead to sudden cardiac death, occurs frequently in patients after myocardial infarction. Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFA) is a modestly effective treatment of VT, but it has limitations and risks. Cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR)–based heart digital twins have emerged as a useful tool for identifying VT circuits for RFA treatment planning. However, the CMR resolution used to reconstruct these digital twins may impact VT circuit predictions, leading to incorrect RFA treatment planning.
