High-density mapping of the tachycardia circuit in atrioventricular nodal reentrant tachycardia

Year: 2016

Type: article

Abstract: Electroanatomic mapping of tachycardia circuits can provide invaluable diagnostic and therapeutic advantages during electrophysiology study and catheter ablation procedures. However, they can be limited in their spatial and temporal resolution owing to a finite number of electroanatomic points collected manually. Classically, the reentrant circuit of atrioventricular node reentrant tachycardia (AVNRT) is contained within the fast and slow pathways of the AV node. This narrow anatomic window limits the effective electroanatomic mapping that can be performed.
