Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping

Radiofrequency ablation with 3D mapping is a minimally invasive procedure using radio waves to target and treat arrhythmias with precision.

[icon-pros]Pros: Offers precise targeting of cardiac arrhythmias with 3D imaging, reducing recurrence rates by up to 80%. Minimizes damage to surrounding tissues compared to other methods.
[icon-cons]Cons: Requires specialized equipment and expertise, which may not be available in all medical facilities. Potential for longer procedure times compared to simpler techniques.
[icon-effect]Effectiveness: Success rate of 70-90% in treating atrial fibrillation.
[icon-clock]Duration: 2-4 hours.
[icon-run]Recovery: 1-2 weeks.
[icon-thumbs]Best for: Treating complex cardiac arrhythmias in patients not responding to medication. Suitable for patients with atrial fibrillation.
[icon-price]Prices: [txt-country]
