Possible, in Part Future, Applications of Computer Models in CRT (Upper panel) The concept of the 3B-perspective. (Middle panel) Various diagnostic tools for better stratification of cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) patients, ranging from standard 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG) to vectorcardiography (VCG), speckle tracking strains and late enhancement-cardiac magnetic resonance (LE-CMR). (Bottom panel) Feeding a computer model with patient-specific diagnostic data can provide patient-specific “fingerprints” of cardiac electromechanics. This may help in better diagnosis and understanding of the mechanism of disease, better understanding of diagnostic signals under baseline conditions, and may lead to better therapy planning and evaluation of novel therapy options.
