New Cryotechnology for Electrical Isolation of the Pulmonary Veins

Introduction: Creation of radiofrequency lesions to isolate the pulmonary veins (PV) and ablate atrial fibrillation (AF) has been complicated by stenosis of the PVs. We tested a cryoballoon technology that can create electrical isolation of the PVs, with the hypothesis that cryoenergy will not resul...
