Item Rational and design of EuroCRT: an international observational study on multi-modality imaging and cardiac resynchronization therapy(2017) Sade, Elif; Donal, Erwan; Delgado, Victoria; Magne, Julien; Bucciarelli-Ducci, Chiara; Leclercq, Christophe; Cosyns, Bernard; Sitges, Marta; Edvardsen, Thor; Stankovic, Ivan; Agricola, Eustachio; Galderisi, Maurizio; Lancellotti, Patrizio; Hernandez, Alfredo; Plein, Sven; Muraru, Denisa; Schwammenthal, Ehud; Hindricks, Gerhard; Popescu, Bogdan A.; Habib, Gilbert; 28329299Aims Assessment of left ventricular (LV) volumes and ejection fraction (LVEF) with cardiac imaging is important in the selection of patients for cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT). Several observational studies have explored the role of imaging-derived LV dyssynchrony parameters to predict the response to CRT, but have yielded inconsistent results, precluding the inclusion of imaging-derived LV dyssynchrony parameters in current guidelines for selection of patients for CRT. Methods The EuroCRT is a large European multicentre prospective observational study led by the European Association of Cardiovascular Imaging. We aim to explore if combing the value of cardiac magnetic resonance (CMR) and echocardiography could be beneficial for selecting heart failure patients for CRT in terms of improvement in long-term survival, clinical symptoms, LV function, and volumes. Speckle tracking echocardiography will be used to assess LV dyssynchrony and wasted cardiac work whereas myocardial scar will be assessed with late gadolinium contrast enhanced CMR. All data will be measured in core laboratories. The study will be conducted in European centres with known expertise in both CRT and multimodality cardiac imaging.Item Multimodality Imaging in Restrictive Cardiomyopathies: An EACVI expert consensus document In collaboration with the "Working Group on myocardial and pericardial diseases" of the European Society of Cardiology Endorsed by The Indian Academy of Echocardiography(2017) Sade, Leyla Elif; 0000-0003-3737-8595; 28510718; AAQ-7583-2021Restrictive cardiomyopathies (RCMs) are a diverse group of myocardial diseases with a wide range of aetiologies, including familial, genetic and acquired diseases and ranging from very rare to relatively frequent cardiac disorders. In all these diseases, imaging techniques play a central role. Advanced imaging techniques provide important novel data on the diagnostic and prognostic assessment of RCMs. This EACVI consensus document provides comprehensive information for the appropriateness of all non-invasive imaging techniques for the diagnosis, prognostic evaluation, and management of patients with RCM.
