4. Indication for an endocardial VT catheter ablation for symptomatic VT with use of CESS V1.0 or CESS V1.1 OR an indication for an ICD procedure (de novo implant, replacement or upgrade) or de novo CRTD procedure for the risk of or presence of VT (CESS 1.0 and 1.1)
5. Etiology of arrhythmia, or risk of arrhythmia being ischemic cardiomyopathy or non-ischemic cardiomyopathy

1. Medically unstable at time of study and unsafe to undergo DFT testing under general anesthesia or conscious sedation as determined by the investigator
2. Hemodynamic instability as determined by the investigator
3. AF or atrial flutter at time of Study Procedure and no anticoagulation for preceding 3 weeks and no preoperative transesophageal echocardiographic, Cardiac CT or Intracardiac echocardiographic confirmation of the absence of LA thrombus
4. Presence of intracardiac thrombus
5. Inability to pass catheters to heart due to vascular limitations
6. Cardiovascular anatomical defects that would complicate placement of the lead or catheter required by the protocol, including congenital heart disease and cardiac vein anomalies as determined by the investigator
