AB  - The identification of heart failure (HF) patients at risk for arrhythmic sudden 
      cardiac arrest (SCA) is a major challenge in the cardiovascular field. In 
      addition to optimal medical treatment for HF, implantable cardioverter 
      defibrillator (ICD) is currently recommended to prevent SCA in patients with 
      reduced left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF). The indication for an ICD 
      implantation, in addition to HF etiology, New York Health Association (NYHA) 
      class and life expectancy, mainly depends on LVEF value at echocardiography. 
      However, the actual role of LVEF in the prediction of SCA has recently been 
      debated, while newer multimodality imaging techniques with increased prognostic 
      accuracy have been developed. Speckle tracking imaging allows the quantification 
      of mechanical dispersion, a marker of electrophysiological heterogeneity 
      predisposing to malignant arrhythmias, while advanced cardiac magnetic resonance 
      techniques such as myocardial T1-mapping and extracellular volume fraction 
      assessment allow the evaluation of interstitial diffuse fibrosis. Nuclear imaging 
      is helpful for the appraisal of sympathetic nervous system dysfunction, while 
      newer computed tomography techniques assessing myocardial delayed enhancement 
      allow the identification of focal myocardial scar. This review will focus on the 
      most modern advances in the field of cardiovascular imaging along with its 
      applications for the prediction of SCA in patients with HF. Modern artificial 
      intelligence applications in cardiovascular imaging will also be discussed.
