Recent advances have enabled noninvasive mapping of cardiac arrhythmias with electrocardiographic imaging and noninvasive delivery of precise ablative radiation with stereotactic body radiation ...

Ventricular tachycardia (VT) is caused by abnormal electrical circuits originating from diseased areas of the ventricular myocardium. It usually results in a rapid heartbeat, preventing effective ...

SAN FRANCISCO -- Noninvasive stereotactic radiotherapy (RT) for refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) achieved outcomes similar to catheter ablation with substantially fewer serious adverse events ...

A technique borrowed from radiation oncology that takes the catheter out of catheter ablation continued to put in an impressive performance, observers say, in the longest yet follow-up of patients ...

The Amsterdam UMC team, shown here, performed the VT ablation procedure following previous experiences performing atrial flutter and premature ventricular complex (PVC) ablation procedures guided by ...

Directing patients selectively to centers performing higher volumes of ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation may help reduce in-hospital complications following the procedure, an observational study ...

Ablation, a procedure to treat abnormal electrical short circuits caused by a heart attack and is usually reserved for patients who do not improve with medication, may be a better first-line treatment ...

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Thermedical ®, a developer of thermal-ablation systems to treat ventricular arrhythmias, announced today that the U.S. Food & Drug Administration (FDA) has approved an ...
