For physicians and cardiologistsIs your patient a good candidate for cryoablation? Currently, cryoablation is approved only for patients with supraventricular tachycardia. Studies have shown that the procedure is effective in the treatment of atrial fibrillation. Generally, electrophysiologists who add cryoablation to their practice do so because it offers a very high level of safety. Features such as cryoadhesion (for greater stability) and cryomapping (for pre-ablation site-testing) contribute to its safety profile. Cryoablation offers unique advantages:
Advantages of using cryoablation to treat atrial fibrillation:
