Article Title: Impact of rotor temperospatial stability on acute and one‐year atrial fibrillation ablation outcomes

doi: 10.1002/clc.22674

Figure Lengend Snippet: Right anterior oblique (panel A) and left anterior oblique (panel B) fluoroscopic images showing basket catheter deployment in the left atrium. Panel C illustrates projection of an identified rotor (green) onto a CARTO computed tomography–merged image of the left atrium. Blue dots indicate phrenic nerve capture sites; ablation lesions are shown in red.

Article Snippet: A 3‐dimensional bi‐atrial map was constructed with an electroanatomic mapping system (CARTO; Biosense Webster, South Diamond Bar, CA) and was merged onto a preexisting atrial computed tomography (CT) or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Techniques: Computed Tomography

Figure Lengend Snippet: Left panel showing the three-dimensional electroanatomical CARTO maps (Biosense Webster, Diamond Bar, CA, USA) of right (gray) and left (green) atria with coronary sinus (blue) and right panel with three-dimensional reconstruction from magnetic resonance imaging. Both panels show the images from the anteroposterior view.

Article Title: Epicardial ventricular tachycardia ablation: safety and efficacy of access and ablation using low-iodine content

doi: 10.1007/s00392-024-02378-6

Figure Lengend Snippet: Preprocedural imaging using LGE-CMR to identify epicardial/midmyocardial substrate (A + B). Correspondingly, epicardial (C + D) map. Example of a patient undergoing preprocedural LGE-MRI imaging with evidence of epicardial substrate (A + B) with corresponding VT substrate on the epicardial mapping (C + D) reconstructed with CARTO-3 system (C: PA view showing patchy substrate epicardially, D: left lateral inferior view showing proposed VT channel based on preprocedural CT imaging and respective ablation lesions). The preprocedural MRI showed epicardial and partly intramural substrate inferior and inferolateral as well as inferoseptal

Article Snippet: All epicardial procedures were performed using a three-dimensional electroanatomic mapping system (CARTO 2 or 3, BiosenseWebster, Diamond Bar, CA, USA; Ensite Precision, Abbott, St. Paul, MN, USA; Rhythmia, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA) and performing electrical and structural substrate characterization using high-density multipolar mapping catheter (Pentaray, BiosenseWebster, Diamond Bar, CA, USA; Advisor HD Grid, Abbott, St. Paul, MN, USA; Intellamap Orion, Boston Scientific, Natick, MA, USA).
