Anatomical characteristics of mitral isthmus and its spatial relationship with the esophagus in patients undergoing atrial fibrillation ablation using CT angiography
Pre-procedural cardiovascular CTA provides essential insights into the MI's anatomical details and its relation to the esophagus, aiding in the customization of ablation strategies to enhance procedural safety and efficacy. The findings highlight the significance of tailored imaging assessments to mitigate esophageal injury risks in atrial fibrillation ablation.
