Mapping for the Target Sites of Ablation in Post-infarction Ventricular Tachycardia- Is Sinus Rhythm Sufficient?

The long road to success with radiofrequency ablation for scar-related ventricular tachycardia (VT) has taken the electrophysiologists down many unexpected paths in the last two decades. During this period, the progress in defining the pathological circuits involved in genesis of this complex tachya...
