Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy is a genetic condition where heart muscle is gradually replaced by fatty or fibrous tissue, particularly in the right ventricle. It is a significant cause of sudden cardiac death in young athletes. An MRI may show characteristic changes in the right ventricular lining consistent with this condition. Finding arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy early allows for monitoring and treatment that may help reduce the risk of life-threatening arrhythmia.
