The relationship between left ventricular shape and QT interval dispersion.
Left ventricular geometry is suspected to affect heterogeneity of myocardial repolarization; therefore, it is plausible but unproven that increased sphericity of the left ventricle is associated with greater QT interval dispersion. In 60 patients with dilated cardiomyopathy with left ventricular ejection fraction < or = 30%, we found that spherical distortion of the left ventricle was associated with increased QT dispersion, implying increased heterogeneity of myocardial repolarization.
