DIFFUSE LATE GADOLINIUM ENHANCEMENT ON MRI IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE OCCURRENCE OF MULTIFORM VPC IN PATIENTS WITH NONISCHEMIC CARDIOMYOPATHY COMPENSATED HEART FAILURE

Late gadolinium enhancement (LGE) on cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) represents myocardial fibrosis and predicts the occurrence of sudden cardiac death in nonischemic cardiomyopathy. However, it is not clarified whether the diffuse LGE of left ventricle (LV) is related to ventricular
