Researchers at RIT are developing non-invasive technology that will better assess cardiac tissue response to thermal energy, a common therapy approach for both cancer and cardiac arrhythmia treatments ...

Ablation, a procedure to treat abnormal electrical short circuits caused by a heart attack and is usually reserved for patients who do not improve with medication, may be a better first-line treatment ...

For ventricular tachycardia (VT), catheter ablation is often seen as an option of last resort, however, some are questioning whether there has been too much emphasis on antiarrhythmic medication. In ...

April 10 (UPI) --Recurrence of atrial fibrillation in patients who have undergone catheter heart ablation may be reduced by treating gum disease within three months of the procedure, new Japanese ...

The first randomized trial to investigate preventive ablation of a potential arrhythmogenic substrate associated with coronary chronic total occlusion (CTO) in patients at high risk of ventricular ...

Hyderabad: Yashoda Hospitals-Secunderabad marked another significant milestone in the field of cardiac electrophysiology by ...

Targeted radiation therapy might be a safer way to treat a potentially dangerous heart rate problem, a new study says. Radiation therapy treated ventricular tachycardia as well as a standard but ...

SAN FRANCISCO — A focused form of radiation akin to that used to destroy solid tumors may be effective at controlling high-risk ventricular arrhythmias in patients who failed to respond to an initial ...

Radiation therapy may offer a comparable and potentially safer alternative to repeat catheter ablation for patients with severe abnormal heart rhythms that can no longer be controlled with medication.
