Echocardiography can be performed in the patient with ventricular tachycardia to rule out structural abnormalities such as a right ventricular cardiomyopathy and silent ischemia on stress testing. Coronary arteriography is often performed in the patient with ventricular tachycardia to rule out obstructive coronary artery disease.
[[Echocardiography]] is an available and helpful modality for [[diagnosis]] and predicting the underlying causes of [[ventricular tachycardia]] and [[sudden cardiac arrest]]. Findings on an [[echocardiography]] include  assessment of [[myocardial]] function, [[valvular]] structural and functional disease, [[congenital heart disease]], [[cardiomyopathy]], [[heart failure]], prior [[MI]].

Overview

Echocardiography is an available and helpful modality for diagnosis and predicting the underlying causes of ventricular tachycardia and sudden cardiac arrest. Findings on an echocardiography include assessment of myocardial function, valvular structural and functional disease, congenital heart disease, cardiomyopathy, heart failure, prior MI.
