Using simultaneous ECG-imaging, speckle-tracking analysis and tissue-phase mapping with MRI we will assess electromechanical dispersion at rest. Regional electromechanical elasticity will be investigated during adenosine and epinephrine, isoprenaline infusions and is postulated to increase sudden cardiac death risk prediction in the individual patient.
