Ventricular tachycardia is a type of arrhythmia, or irregular heart rhythm. Sometimes called VT or V-tach, it’s an unusually fast heartbeat that starts in the lower part of your heart called the ...

Polymorphic ventricular tachycardia is an abnormal heart rhythm where the bottom chambers of your heart beat too quickly. People with severe cases may experience sudden cardiac arrest. Conditions that ...

Researchers from multiple institutions in North America have developed a fully automated, deep-learning (DL), artificial-intelligence clinical tool that can measure the volume of cerebral ventricles ...

First-degree ventricular (heart) block affects the electrical signal that makes the heart beat. It causes a delay in a portion of the heart beat and may lead to a slow heart beat. Healthcare ...

Japanese scientists at Tokyo University of Agriculture and Technology (TUAT), Teikyo University of Science, and Juntendo University have found -- in animal studies -- a close relationship between ...

Atrial fibrillation with rapid ventricular response is a fancy name for an irregular heartbeat. When your heart's electrical signals aren't working right, it can lead to a heartbeat that's too fast.

Enlarged cerebral ventricles are found in 80% of individuals with schizophrenia, yet the mechanisms that lead to ventricular enlargement are mostly unknown. Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research ...

Non-sustained ventricular tachycardia is an abnormally fast heart rate that occurs in the lower chambers of the heart and lasts for less than 30 seconds. Tachycardia is a heart rate that is faster ...

Enlarged ventricles in the brains of people with multiple sclerosis were previously considered a sign of tissue loss. But a team at the MDC and ECRC demonstrated that this expansion often recedes. A ...

An arrhythmia is an atypical heartbeat that is either much faster or slower than expected. Your heartbeat may be described as chaotic, rather than steady and predictable. There are several types of ...
