Ultra-high-resolution assessment of lesion extension after cryoballoon ablation for pulmonary vein isolation

IntroductionUnrecognized incomplete pulmonary vein (PV) isolation during the index procedure, can be a major cause of clinical recurrences of atrial fibrillation (AF) after cryoballoon (CB) ablation. We aimed to characterize the extension of the lesions produced by CB ablation and to assess the valu...
