PREDICTING POTENTIALLY FATAL CONDUCTIVE DISEASE IN SARCOIDOSIS: CAN CARDIAC MRI DEFINE THE RISK?

Propensity risks suggest LGE may identify unstable electrical myocardium in a subset of patients warranting prophylactic AICD/PM placement. [...]LGE defined yearly risk estimate for cardiac sarcoid (>35%) is far greater than current post-implant AICD firing rate in ischemic CMX (
