Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Atrial Tachycardia [PDF]
Korean Circulation Journal, 2000 Radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) has been established as an effective and safe treatment modality for atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia and WPW syndrome. Surgical ablation or direct current catheter ablation had been performed to cure focal atrial tachycardia (AT), however, these treatments had limitations such as the need of open ...

Feasibility of Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation in the Treatment of Atrial Fibrillation
Український журнал серцево-судинної хірургії, 2020 Atrial fibrillation (AF) is a worldwide epidemic that has hit about 33 million people. In clinical studies, the efficacy of antiarrhythmic therapy and catheter ablation in the treatment of AF was compared, and controversial results were obtained ...

Magnetic Ball Chain Robots for Cardiac Arrhythmia Treatment [PDF]
This paper introduces a novel magnetic navigation system for cardiac ablation. The system is formed from two key elements: a magnetic ablation catheter consisting of a chain of spherical permanent magnets; and an actuation system comprised of two cart-mounted permanent magnets undergoing pure rotation.

Improving Catheter Segmentation & Localization in 3D Cardiac Ultrasound Using Direction-Fused FCN [PDF]
arXiv, 2019 Fast and accurate catheter detection in cardiac catheterization using harmless 3D ultrasound (US) can improve the efficiency and outcome of the intervention. However, the low image quality of US requires extra training for sonographers to localize the catheter.
