A Case of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia Associated with an Old Myocardial Infarction Guided by a Noncontact Mapping System

A Case of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Ventricular Tachycardia Associated with an Old Myocardial Infarction Guided by a Noncontact Mapping System

We describe here a 72-year-old man with ventricular tachycardia (VT) associated with an old myocardial infarction, in whom noncontact mapping guided radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) successfully eliminated the VT. Right ventricular pacing induced 3 VTs with different QRS morphologies and axes...
