Functional Activation Mapping of Scar-Related Ventricular Tachycardia Substrate
Keywords:
Ventricular tachycardia, Catheter ablation, Electroanatomical mappingAbstract
The optimal method to identify the arrhythmogenic substrate of scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) is unknown. Sites of activation slowing during sinus rhythm (SR) often co-localize with the VT circuit. This is a report of two scar related VT substrate mapping using a strategy of voltage-independent approach.
