The primary objective of this observational study is to evaluate whether magnetocardiography (MCG) findings more accurately predict clinical outcomes in patients with acquired Long QT syndrome compared to ECG. The secondary objective is to assess differences in QT interval length between MCG and ECG. The primary safety objective is to characterize the safety profile of the CardiAQ MCG device.

MCG is a non-invasive, radiation-free imaging technique that detects the magnetic field generated by the electrical activity of the heart.

Number of successful dofetilide loading using Magnetocardiography
Dofetilide loading is considered successful if the following conditions are met: 1. No excessive QTc prolongation QTc remains \<500 ms, and no \>15% increase from baseline. 2. No sustained VT or recurrent/symptomatic non-sustained VT (NSVT) suggestive of proarrhythmia. 3. No symptomatic bradycardia or hemodynamic instability 4. Stable renal function 5. No deterioration necessitating dose reduction or discontinuation. 6. Discharge on a stable dose
Time frame: Baseline

Time frame: Baseline
Magnetocardiography - QT interval length
QT interval length is a measurement from the start of the Q wave to the end of the T wave. This will be measured in seconds.
