Electrostructural Tomography – Towards Multiparametric Imaging of Cardiac Electrical Disorders

Cardiac electrical diseases are directly responsible for sudden cardiac death, heart failure and stroke. They result from a complex interplay between myocardial electrical activation and structural heterogeneity. Current diagnostic strategy based on separate electrocardiographic and imaging assessment is unable to grasp both these aspects. Improvements in personalised diagnostics are urgently needed as existing curative or preventive therapies (catheter ablation, multisite pacing, and implantable defibrillators) cannot be offered until patients are correctly recognised. My aim is to achieve a major advance in the way cardiac electrical diseases are characterised and thus diagnosed and…
