Key result
Radiofrequency catheter ablation of cardiac arrhythmias was simulated using a finite-element based solution of the bioheat transfer equation to visualize temperature profiles in cardiac tissue.
Finite-element modeling can be used to visualize spatial and temporal temperature profiles during radiofrequency catheter ablation of cardiac tissue.
