Comparison of the amount and patterns of late enhancement in Chagas disease according to the presence and type of ventricular tachycardia

Background Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is one of the main predictors of mortality in Chagas cardiomyopathy (CC). Although the substrate of sustained and nonsustained‐VT (NS‐VT) seems to be the same, little is known about the distribution of late enhancement (LE). Our aim was to compare the clinical...
