Left Atrial Wall Thickness Measured by a Machine Learning Method Predicts AF Recurrence After Pulmonary Vein Isolation.

Journal of cardiovascular electrophysiology
BACKGROUND: Left atrial (LA) remodeling plays a significant role in the progression of atrial fibrillation (AF). Although LA wall thickness (LAWT) has emerged as an indicator of structural remodeling, its impact on AF outcomes remains unclear. We aim...

Neural network reconstruction of the left atrium using sparse catheter paths.

International journal of computer assisted radiology and surgery
PURPOSE: Catheter-based radiofrequency ablation for pulmonary vein isolation has become the first line of treatment for atrial fibrillation in recent years. This requires a rather accurate map of the left atrial sub-endocardial surface including the ...

Deep learning-based multimodal fusion of the surface ECG and clinical features in prediction of atrial fibrillation recurrence following catheter ablation.

BMC medical informatics and decision making
BACKGROUND: Despite improvement in treatment strategies for atrial fibrillation (AF), a significant proportion of patients still experience recurrence after ablation. This study aims to propose a novel algorithm based on Transformer using surface ele...

An artificial intelligence-enabled electrocardiogram algorithm for the prediction of left atrial low-voltage areas in persistent atrial fibrillation.

Journal of cardiovascular electrophysiology
OBJECTIVES: We aimed to construct an artificial intelligence-enabled electrocardiogram (ECG) algorithm that can accurately predict the presence of left atrial low-voltage areas (LVAs) in patients with persistent atrial fibrillation.

Sensor-Based Measurement Method to Support the Assessment of Robot-Assisted Radiofrequency Ablation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Digital surgery technologies, such as interventional robotics and sensor systems, not only improve patient care but also aid in the development and optimization of traditional invasive treatments and methods. Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is the most comm...

Impact of artificial intelligence arrhythmia mapping on time to first ablation, procedure duration, and fluoroscopy use.

Journal of cardiovascular electrophysiology
INTRODUCTION: Artificial intelligence (AI) ECG arrhythmia mapping provides arrhythmia source localization using 12-lead ECG data; whether this information impacts procedural efficiency is unknown. We performed a retrospective, case-control study to e...

Artificial intelligence-adjudicated spatiotemporal dispersion: A patient-unique fingerprint of persistent atrial fibrillation.

Heart rhythm
BACKGROUND: Spatiotemporal dispersion-guided ablation is a tailored approach for patients in persistent atrial fibrillation (PsAF). The characterization of dispersion extent and distribution and its association with common clinical descriptors of PsA...

Design and Validation of a Soft Robotic Simulator for Transseptal Puncture Training.

IEEE transactions on bio-medical engineering
OBJECTIVE: Transseptal puncture (TP) is the technique used to access the left atrium of the heart from the right atrium during cardiac catheterization procedures. Through repetition, electrophysiologists and interventional cardiologists experienced i...

Minimally invasive nephron-sparing treatments for T1 renal cell cancer in patients over 75 years: a comparison of outcomes after robot-assisted partial nephrectomy and percutaneous ablation.

European radiology
PURPOSE: To compare the oncological and perioperative outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RPN) and percutaneous thermal ablation (PTA) for treatment of T1 renal cell cancer (RCC) in patients older than 75 years.

Percutaneous Ablation Robot-Assisted Partial Nephrectomy for Completely Endophytic Renal Masses: A Multicenter Trifecta Analysis with a Minimum 3-Year Follow-Up.

Journal of endourology
To compare outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) and percutaneous tumor ablation (PTA) for completely endophytic renal masses. Data of patients who underwent RAPN or PTA for treatment of completely endophytic (three points for "E" d...
