Response By Halliday Et Al To Letter Regarding Article, "Association Between Midwall Late Gadolinium Enhancement And Sudden Cardiac Death In Patients With Dilated Cardiomyopathy And Mild And Moderate Left Ventricular Systolic Dysfunction"
CIRCULATION(2018)
摘要
We thank Dr Locorotondo and colleagues for their kind comments regarding our recently published article.1 We agree that, although the quantification of midwall late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) in dilated cardiomyopathy has been shown to be reproducible between operators in the same center using a single technique, it is not known whether this remains the case when examining operators in different centers using different techniques.2 Quantification of LGE relies on a degree of subjective interpretation, and this appears to be a major barrier to the use of cutoff values within clinical practice. In addition, the exact relationship between the extent …
