System and Method for Personalized Arrhythmia Risk Assessment by Simulating Arrhythmia Inducibility

Unmet NeedEach year over 300,000 people die of sudden cardiac death (SCD) in the US alone. Implanted cardioverter-defibrillators (ICDs) are considered the best defense against SCD. However, the processes for determining good candidates for ICDs remains vague and overly inclusive. Current tests that provide better pictures of a patient’s SCD risk are...

Using Patient-Specific Modeling of the Heart for Risk Stratification for Ventricular Arrhythmia in Patients with Repaired Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) via Image-Based Computational Simulations

The JHU inventors previous invention (C11304) provides a non-invasive method to identify the optimal ablation sites for infarct-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) by using 3D electrophysiological heart simulations with a model reconstructed from the patient’s late gadolinium-enhanced (LGE) MRI image. In this application, the inventors extend that...
