Ablation of Multiwavelet Re-entry Guided by Circuit-Density and Distribution: Maximizing the Probability of Circuit Annihilation

BACKGROUND—A key mechanism responsible for atrial fibrillation is multiwavelet re-entry (MWR). We have previously demonstrated improved efficiency of ablation when lesions were placed in regions of high circuit-density. In this study, we undertook a quantitative assessment of the relative effect of...
