Regional differences in MWIs were noted in the BMVP patients compared with controls, with overall reduced myocardial efficiency in the posterolateral trident and basal septal regions. In cross-sectional analysis, MWIs were not different in patients with ventricular tachyarrhythmias. Impact of MWI in long-term prognosis needs to be determined.
