Clinical Significance of Epsilon Waves in Arrhythmogenic Cardiomyopathy

Epsilon waves are hallmark features of arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM) but information about their clinical significance is variable. We evaluated epsilon wave prevalence, characteristics, and their clinical significance in an ACM population.
