About this Research Topic

This Research Topic is still accepting articles.

Background

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is a life-threatening cardiac arrhythmia that originates in the ventricles and can lead to sudden cardiac death if not effectively managed. Understanding the underlying pathophysiological mechanisms is crucial for the development of effective ablation techniques. Recent advancements in electrophysiological mapping and imaging have provided new insights, yet many aspects remain elusive, necessitating further investigation to enhance therapeutic outcomes.

This research topic aims to advance the understanding of the pathophysiological mechanisms underlying VT and to explore innovative ablation techniques that improve patient outcomes. By fostering interdisciplinary collaboration, we aim to bridge gaps between basic research and clinical application, ultimately contributing to more effective and tailored therapeutic strategies.

We invite submissions that cover a wide range of topics, including but not limited to:

· Molecular and cellular mechanisms contributing to VT.

· Advances in imaging and mapping technologies for VT diagnosis.

· Novel ablation techniques and their efficacy.

· Clinical trials and case studies highlighting successful VT management.

· Computational models of VT dynamics and ablation effects.

Authors are encouraged to submit original research articles, reviews, and case reports that provide new insights into VT mechanisms and ablation techniques. Manuscripts should clearly define the problem, methodology, and significance of findings. Interdisciplinary approaches and collaborative studies are highly encouraged. Submissions will undergo peer review to ensure high standards of research quality and relevance
