Radiofrequency ablation of cardiac arrhythmias: past, present and future

J P Joseph et al. QJM. 2012 Apr.

Abstract

The treatment of cardiac arrhythmias has been revolutionized by the ability to definitively treat many patients with radiofrequency catheter ablation, rather than requiring lifelong medication. This review covers the history of how this has developed and the methods used currently and explores what the future holds for this rapidly evolving branch of Cardiology.
