Abstract
Assessment of mechanical dyssynchrony is feasible using CMR-FT in ToF patients. Parameters of mechanical dyssynchrony correlate with electrical dyssynchrony, biventricular function and objective exercise capacity in this setting. Due to the weak degree of correlation, however, the clinical significance of these findings remains to be clarified by further studies.
