Echocardiography as a guidance in CRT management: the GPS system in a labyrinth?

Although progress has been made to understand the factors for non-responsiveness, fine tuning and comprehensive strategies are needed to make echocardiography the GPS system in cardiac resynchronization. Taking the wrong turn in the labyrinth of dyssynchrony is expensive and time consuming without i...

description Although progress has been made to understand the factors for non-responsiveness, fine tuning and comprehensive strategies are needed to make echocardiography the GPS system in cardiac resynchronization. Taking the wrong turn in the labyrinth of dyssynchrony is expensive and time consuming without improving well being of the heart failure patient. Possibly other imaging techniques could help in fine tuning cardiac resynchronization.
