Book Synopsis

Now in its second edition, this practical guide offers clear-headed guidance to the successful application of catheter ablation for atrial fibrillation. This book concentrates on clinically-relevant information that providers can put to immediate use caring for patients.

  • Takes a clear-headed practical approach to ablation of atrial fibrillation long on actionable, clinically-relevant guidance, succinct and to-the-point on the theory behind the procedure
  • Edited by three leading, internationally-known electrophysiologists with extensive experience in ablation for atrial fibrillation
  • Written by international team of experts reflecting global best practices from centers with considerable experience in the use of catheter ablation
  • Format designed to serve the needs of electrophysiologists regardless of experience, electrophysiology fellows, electrophysiology nurses and lab technical staff
  • Covers hot topics such as new noninvasive imaging
