Does image integration improve clinical outcomes in patients undergoing catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation?
Image integration during catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation does not significantly improve clinical outcomes, highlighting that achieving pulmonary vein electrical isolation is the critical determinant of success.
Image integration to guide catheter ablation for AF did not significantly improve the clinical outcome. Achieving PV EI is the critical determinant of procedural success rather than the mapping tools used to achieve it.
