DOI: 10.1161/circep.121.010347
Abstract: Background: Ablation of ventricular tachycardia (VT) is limited by the inability to create penetrating lesions to reach intramyocardial origins. Intramural needle ablation using in-catheter, heated saline-enhanced radio frequency (SERF) energy uses convective heating to increase… read more here.
