Abstract 12792: Reentrant Drivers Are Distinguished From Passive Rotors by Sequential Computer Simulation of Ablation Using Personalized Non-Paroxysmal Atrial Fibrillation Heart Models Based on Late Gadolinium Enhancement Magnetic Resonance Imaging (LGE-MRI)
Abstract:Introduction:
Although rotor modulation targeting atrial fibrillation (AF) drivers or substrates has been proposed as one of the effective ablation strategies for non-paroxysmal AF (Non-PAF), previous meta-analyses demonstrated that ablation added to pulmonary vein isolation (PVI) did not result in the expected outcome. This is because the optimal method of detection of rotors and ablation strategy remain unclear. Recently, rotor detection using LGE-MRI-based computer simulations has been shown to … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
