4. 2. Catheter Ablation of Atrial Fibrillation and Atrial Flutter : A Comparison of Cryo and Radiofrequency Techniques

   Author : Helena Malmborg; Carina Blomström-Lundqvist; Stefan Lönnerholm; Pekka Raatikainen; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Atrial fibrillation (AF) and atrial flutter (AFl) are two of the most common arrhythmias encountered in the population. Catheter ablation has emerged as a useful tool in the treatment of these arrhythmias. Although radiofrequency (RF) is the most commonly used energy source for ablation, cryoenergy may have some advantageous properties. READ MORE
