Consecutive patients with ischemic heart disease and clinical indication of VT ablation will undergo baseline clinical evaluation, echocardiography and cardiac CT imaging using a contrast-enhanced cardiac-gated method with a 64-section scanner. Trans-axial CT images comprising the whole heart volume will be exported in DICOM format. CT image processing will be performed and will be used to delineate the LV endocardial and/or epicardial geometries. These data will be imported into the RAPID-VT software and the 3D-electranatomical mapping system for image integration. During the VT ablation procedure, VT(s) induction will be performed. The VT(s) 12-lead ECG will be acquired by the RAPID-VT software and will be localized to the scar margin using the RAPID-VT software. Catheter ablation will be attempted at software-determined sites. Post procedure, patient will be followed up for a minimum of 6 months. That will include Remote ICD follow-up and telephone study visits. Follow-up at 6 months will include a clinic visit for assessment of heart failure status, ECG, ICD interrogation and changes in antiarrhythmic drug therapy.
