Contrast Enhanced

Catheter ablation is presently the main method for interventional treatment of atrial fibrillation (AF). Despite improvements of the method and accumulation of personnel’s experience, incidence of recurrent AF following catheter interventions remains high. This review addresses a possibility of using contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging to increase the effectiveness of interventional treatment of arrhythmia.
