The circadian pattern of the development of ventricular fibrillation in patients with Brugada syndrome.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Myocardial ischaemia occurs principally in the subendocardial layer, whereas conventional myocardial perfusion imaging provides no information on the transmural myocardial blood flow (MBF) distribution. Subendocardial perfusion measurements and quantification of the transmural perfusion gradient (TPG) could ...
