Understanding Lesion Creation Biophysics and Improved Lesion Assessment during Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation. The Perfect Combination to Achieve Durable Lesions in Atrial Fibrillation Ablation

Understanding Lesion Creation Biophysics and Improved Lesion Assessment during Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation. The Perfect Combination to Achieve Durable Lesions in Atrial Fibrillation Ablation

Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a prevalent arrhythmia, while pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) has become a cornerstone in its treatment. The creation of durable lesions is crucial for successful and long-lasting PVI, as inconsistent lesions lead to reconnections and recurrence after ablation. Various app...
