Abstract
Introduction: The role of contrast-enhanced (ce) cardiac magnetic resonance in risk stratification of patients with depressed left ventricle (LV) function is widely studied. In this study, we investigated the myocardial infarct size and characteristics by ce-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and its relationship with spontaneous ventricular arrhythmia occurrence during follow-up of in patients with mild LV systolic dysfunction and nonsustained ventricular tachycardia (VT).
