Echocardiography may be helpful in the diagnosis the cause of lethal arrhythmia and sudden cardiac arrest by assessment of the following:[1]
- Regional wall motion abnormality
- Systolic function of left ventricle
- Evidence of myocardial infarction
- Valvular heart disease such as aortic stenosis
- Right ventricular cardiomyopathy
- Pericardial effusion, Tamponade
- Aorta dissection
