Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) has a prevalence of 1 in 500 people and highly increases the risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD). Diagnosis is typically based on the Echocardiogram, while cardiac MRI is used for detection of myocardial scarring through Late Gadolinium Enhancement (LGE), an important risk marker for SCD.

Since its identification in 1981 its diagnosis has increased due to the advancements in cardiac imaging. It’s association with ventricular arrythmia (VA) and sudden cardiac death (SCD) underscores the importance of its identification. Electrocardiogram (ECG) showed sustained monomorphic VT at a rate of 160 bpm.
