Core Tip |
Among patients undergoing initial atrial fibrillation ablation, those with larger pulmonary vein (PV) size determined by pre-procedure cardiac magnetic resonance imaging had an increased likelihood of needing repeat ablation procedures. Each millimeter increase in PV diameter was associated with an approximately 5%-10% increased risk of requiring repeat procedures. |
