3D/2D Registration of Mapping Catheter Images for Arrhythmia Interventional Assistance [PDF]
Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation has transformed treatment for tachyarrhythmias and has become first-line therapy for some tachycardias. The precise localization of the arrhythmogenic site and the positioning of the RF catheter over that site are ...

The Indications for Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation
Since the introduction of catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation (AF), it developed from a specialized experimental procedure into a common treatment option to prevent recurrent AF. In recent years substantial improvement has been made in the equipment

Catheter Ablation for the Management of Atrial Fibrillation: An Update of the Literature
Catheter ablation has been shown to be more effective at maintaining sinus rhythm and improving quality of life when compared to antiarrhythmic drugs. Radiofrequency and cryoablation are two effective methods.
