Radiofrequency Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias has
been so extensively updated for its third edition that the book now
features a new title: Catheter Ablation of Cardiac Arrhythmias:
Basic Concepts and Clinical Applications. The editors bring you
21 polished chapters, each updating the fundamentals and
progressing to advanced concepts, providing state-of-the-art
knowledge with highly relevant material for experienced
electrophysiologists as well as fellows in training.
This streamlined new edition features:
* Two new editors, both widely published and leaders in the
field of catheter ablation
* 21 instead of 39 chapters, achieved by focusing on primary
topics of broad interest and assimilating information from a wide
range of sources
* Fewer authors, chosen for their recognized contributions to
the topics under discussion, providing a more integrated and
coherent approach
* Anatomic insights from leading pathologist Siew Yen Ho,
integrated with new information from imaging technologies
Each chapter dealing with ablation of a specific arrhythmia
features the author’s personal approach to ablation of the
arrhythmia, including practical ‘how-to’ tips, and a review of
potential pitfalls. Alternate approaches and variations are
succinctly summarized. Original figures and drawings illustrate
specific approaches to improve the usability of the book.
