Does a new nonfluoroscopic, catheter-based electroanatomical mapping system provide accurate and reproducible endocardial mapping in vitro and in vivo?
A novel nonfluoroscopic, catheter-based electroanatomical mapping system using magnetic technology is highly accurate and reproducible in preclinical models, offering a potential solution to the limitations of conventional mapping.
Gepstein et al. (1997) studied this question.
