Reassessment of the electrical connection between the pulmonary veins and the left atrium: A study to determine the different contributions of myocardial fibers along the standard ablation circumference

Reassessment of the electrical connection between the pulmonary veins and the left atrium: A study to determine the different contributions of myocardial fibers along the standard ablation circumference

BackgroundCircumferential ablation around the ipsilateral pulmonary veins (PVs) is the standard strategy for atrial fibrillation ablation. The present study seeks to assess which regions of the standard ablation circumference are the main contributors to the venoatrial electrical connection.MethodsA...
