Cardiac Computed Tomography-Derived Left Atrial Volume Index as a Predictor of Long-Term Success of Cryo-Ablation in Patients With Atrial Fibrillation

•Long-term follow-up data in a cryo-ablation-naïve cohort revealed a success rate of 53.98%.•Success depended on patients’ left atrial volume index (LAVI), as well as AF type and BMI.•The results extend previous investigations and indicate that CT-derived LAVI is a valuable predictor.•Current AF rec...
