Intracardiac echocardiography improves lesion quality and ablation efficiency of pulmonary vein isolation in atrial fibrillation patients: a propensity score-matched analysis

Intracardiac echocardiography improves lesion quality and ablation efficiency of pulmonary vein isolation in atrial fibrillation patients: a propensity score-matched analysis

BackgroundPulmonary vein isolation (PVI) is a cornerstone of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation (AF). Intracardiac echocardiography (ICE) offers real-time imaging that may enhance procedural outcomes compared to traditional x-ray guidance. This study evaluates the impact of ICE on PVI lesion...
