How far the zone of heat-induced transient block extends beyond the lesion during RF catheter cardiac ablation

AbstractPurpose While radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) creates a lesion consisting of the tissue points subjected to lethal heating, the sublethal heating (SH) undergone by the surrounding tissue can cause transient electrophysiological block. The size of the zone of heat-induced transient bl...
