The mass of BZC is the strongest independent variable associated with the occurrence of sustained monomorphic ventricular tachycardia in post-MI patients after adjustment for age, sex, and LVEF. Border zone channel mass measurement could permit a more accurate VT risk stratification than LVEF in chronic post-MI patients.
