Why the study?
Does Left Atrial Sphericity predict recurrence after atrial fibrillation ablation?
Does Left Atrial Sphericity predict recurrence after atrial fibrillation ablation?
Left Atrial Sphericity may be a useful imaging marker to predict recurrence and select candidates for atrial fibrillation ablation.
May aid pre-ablation risk assessment; hypothesis-generating and requires prospective validation before changing practice.
Left Atrial Sphericity is a new independent predictor of recurrence after AF ablation and may be useful in selecting the best candidates for AF ablation.
