Abstract:
Catheter ablation for atrial tachycardia is limited by its low success rate and prolonged procedure time because of difficulties in mapping the site of the tachycardia. A new three-dimensional mapping system, the Cardiac Pathways mapping system, using an ultrasound transducer, has recently become available. We report a case of focal atrial tachycardia ablation with this system.
