Meandering pulmonary veins [PDF]
Medicine, 2020 Abstract Rationale: Meandering pulmonary vein is a rare congenital pulmonary vascular anomaly. It presents unilateral single pulmonary vein that takes a circuitous route in the lung and drains normally into the left atrium. Most cases of meandering pulmonary vein have been reported to be right-sided.

In vivo dose measurement using TLDs and MOSFET dosimeters for cardiac radiosurgery. [PDF]
, 2012 In vivo measurements were made of the dose delivered to animal models in an effort to develop a method for treating cardiac arrhythmia using radiation. This treatment would replace RF energy (currently used to create cardiac scar) with ionizing radiation.

Pulmonary veins firing simultaneously [PDF]
Europace, 2012 A 62-year-old man was referred for catheter ablation of symptomatic paroxysmal atrial fibrillation refractory to propafenone and dronedarone. Isoproterenol in doses of 1–5 mg/min was administered for testing purposes after the completion of pulmonary vein (PV) isolation guided by a 20-electrode circular mapping catheter.
