Clinical utility of microvolt T-wave alternans testing in identifying patients at high or low risk of sudden cardiac death

Background Previous studies have demonstrated that microvolt T-wave alternans (MTWA) testing is a robust predictor of ventricular tachyarrhythmias and sudden cardiac death (SCD) in at-risk patients. However, recent studies have suggested that MTWA testing is not as good a predictor of “appropriate”...
