Computer simulations of an irrigated radiofrequency cardiac ablation catheter and experimental validation by infrared imaging

Computer simulations of an irrigated radiofrequency cardiac ablation catheter and experimental validation by infrared imaging

Purpose To develop and validate a three-dimensional (3-D) computer model based on accurate geometry of an irrigated cardiac radiofrequency (RF) ablation catheter with microwave radiometry capability, and to test catheter performance. Methods A computer model was developed based on CAD geometry of a...
