Morphologies of the Atria and Pulmonary Veins in Relation to Lone Atrial Fibrillation Progression: A Dual-Source Computed Tomography Scan Study

Atrial Remodeling and Lone Atrial Fibrillation. Background: We sought to investigate the role of anatomic remodeling of the atria and pulmonary veins (PVs) in the progression of lone atrial fibrillation (AF) using dual‐source computed tomography (DSCT). Methods and Results: From 1,308 consecutive pa...

Zusammenfassung:Atrial Remodeling and Lone Atrial Fibrillation. Background: We sought to investigate the role of anatomic remodeling of the atria and pulmonary veins (PVs) in the progression of lone atrial fibrillation (AF) using dual‐source computed tomography (DSCT). Methods and Results: From 1,308 consecutive patients referred for an index ablation procedure for AF, we prospectively enrolled 29 consecutive patients with recently developed (
