Cryoablation to improve catheter stability and ablation success in the right atrioventricular groove
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2021 Catheter instability can limit ablation success of arrhythmia substrates at the right atrioventricular groove. We describe cases where cryoablation improved catheter stability, enabling ablation success.

Bipolar Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation for Ventricular Arrhythmias
Reviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022 A minority of premature ventricular contractions (PVC) and ventricular tachycardias (VT) have an intramural origin, which represents a challenge for conventional radiofrequency ablation. Bipolar ablation has the potential ability to create deeper and more transmural lesions and has been demonstrated to be optimal treatment in these cases.

ELECTROPHYSIOLOGY: Radiofrequency catheter ablation of ventricular tachycardia [PDF]
Heart, 2000 Management of patients with ventricular tachycardia (VT) is often difficult. Drug treatment is often ineffective. Implantable defibrillators terminate episodes but do not prevent them. Radiofrequency (RF) catheter ablation offers potential arrhythmia control without the adverse effects of antiarrhythmic treatment.

What Next After Failed Septal Ventricular Tachycardia Ablation?
Indian Pacing and Electrophysiology Journal, 2012 Ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) by conventional radiofrequency ablation can be impossible if the ventricular wall at the targeted ablation site is very thick, as for example the ventricular septum.

Cooling or Warming the Esophagus to Reduce Esophageal Injury During Left Atrial Ablation in the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation. [PDF]
, 2020 Ablation of the left atrium using either radiofrequency (RF) or cryothermal energy is an effective treatment for atrial fibrillation (AF) and is the most frequent type of cardiac ablation procedure performed. Although generally safe, collateral injury to
