Cardiac ablation is a procedure used to scar small areas on the heart that involves in heart rhythm problems. During this procedure, electrodes are placed inside the heart to measure the electrical activity. When the source causing the problem is found, then the tissue causing the problem is destroyed. They are used by two methods - radiofrequency ablation that uses heat energy, and cryoablation that uses cold temperatures to resolve the issue.
Percutaneous Epicardial Ablation for Ventricular Tachycardia
Percutaneous epicardial ablation is a well-established technique for treating ventricular tachycardia and restoring regular cardiac rhythm. Read below.
Advances in Cardiac Electrophysiology Mapping and Ablation
Cardiac electrophysiology (EP) is dedicated to the diagnosis, treatment, and management of arrhythmias and the electrical system of the heart.
Atrial Fibrillation Ablation - Procedure and Risks
Ablation therapy for atrial fibrillation is a procedure in which a part of the heart tissue that causes atrial fibrillation is removed. Read more in the article.
