Abstract
A novel non-fluoroscopic catheter tracking system (Mediguide) can be used in combination with a 3D mapping system for atrial fibrillation (AF) ablation. However, the benefit on radiation exposure of the Mediguide system compared to other ablation systems is unknown.We retrospectively enrolled consecutive 73 patients (51 men; 59±11 years; 60 paroxysmal AF) undergoing pulmonary vein isolation by the same operator. Radiation time, radiation...
