Advances in cardiac device technology have led to the first generation of magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) conditional devices, providing more diagnostic imaging options for …

A comprehensive understanding of the interaction between triggers and electrical substrates
leading to ventricular fibrillation (VF) and sudden cardiac arrest is lacking, and electrical …

There has been great controversy related to performance of magnetic resonance imaging in
patients with pacemakers and implantable cardiac defibrillators. Recent questions have …

Initiation of reentry requires 2 factors:(1) a triggering event, most commonly focal excitations
such as premature ventricular complexes (PVCs); and (2) a vulnerable substrate with …

Ventricular arrhythmias are the leading cause of sudden cardiac death. Understanding the
mechanisms of arrhythmia initiation is important for developing effective therapeutics for …

This chapter provides an overview of cardiovascular physiology and pathophysiology,
