Cardiac Computed Tomograpy Technology in Interventions Related to Atrial Fibrillation

Atrial fibrillation represents the predominant cardiac arrhythmia encountered in the elderly population clinically. In recent years, the use of cardiac interventional therapy for atrial fibrillation has become increasingly prevalent. Cardiac computed tomograpy(CT) plays a important rolesin interventional therapy, particularly demonstrating significant importance in preoperative assessment and planning. This article reviews the applications of cardiac CT in assisting transseptal puncture, catheter radiofrequency ablation, ethanol infusion into the vein of marshall, and left atrial appendage occlusion procedures.
