As the mechanisms underlying persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) are still incompletely understood, a 'gold standard' strategy for ablation is lacking.

High‐Performance Recyclable Polyester Elastomers Through Transient Strain‐Stiffening
Transient strain‐crystallization simultaneously strengthens and toughens block polyester elastomers while conserving recyclability. Using controlled polymerization catalysis and commercial monomers, block polyester elastomers outperform current commercial elastomers, entering a new region of tensile mechanical property space.

Catheter Ablation Outcome Prediction With Advanced Time-Frequency Features of the Fibrillatory Waves From Patients in Persistent Atrial Fibrillation [PDF]
Although catheter ablation (CA) is still the first-line treatment for persistent atrial fibrillation (AF) patients, its limited long-term success rate has motivated clinical interest in preoperative prediction on the procedures outcome to provide optimized patient selection, limit repeated procedures, hospitalization rates, and treatment costs.

Automatic catheter detection in pediatric X-ray images using a scale-recurrent network and synthetic data [PDF]
Catheters are commonly inserted life supporting devices. X-ray images are used to assess the position of a catheter immediately after placement as serious complications can arise from malpositioned catheters. Previous computer vision approaches to detect catheters on X-ray images either relied on low-level cues that are not sufficiently robust or only ...
