Popis: In this chapter, readers will be able to know a better mechanism of lesion formation, the benefits of the technique for specific arrhythmias, practical uses, and tips and tricks on the procedure. The chapter will also contain the first trials that validated the technique showing recent trials comparing cryoablation of atrial fibrillation versus medical treatment. The main idea is to explore how it works for clinical cardiologists and to show electrophysiologists how to use it practically. Readers will see a comparison of cryoablation versus radiofrequency versus laser to decide which one to be used, comparing total procedure time, success rates, and clinical experience.
