The purpose of this study is to demonstrate that cardiac resynchronization therapy (CRT) responder rate can be improved by 3-dimensional (3D) echo-guided left ventricular (LV) lead placement compared to traditional LV lead placement.

Enrollment
78
Information about left ventricular mechanical dyssynchrony and the location of the site of latest mechanical activation based on RT3DE will be available to the physician from the core lab analysis. This location will be used as the target for optimal LV lead placement.

Responder Rate
The responder rate is defined as the proportion of patients with reduction in end systolic volume greater than or equal to 15%. The primary endpoint is the responder rate.
Time frame: At 6 month follow-up
