Oza, Jimeet (author)Atrial fibrillation is a cardiac arrhythmia resulting from abnormal electrical conduction and impulse formation within the atria. To address this condition, a minimally invasive procedure called cardiac ablation is performed. Real-time visual feedback during this procedure plays a critical role in determining its success.<br/><br/>Photoacoustic...master thesis 2023

Suresan, Anjali (author)Atrial Fibrillation (AF) is a cardiac arrhythmia that occurs due to the initiation of electrical impulses in the heart in an uncoordinated manner, giving rise to a disorganized and rapid heartbeat. The progression of AF over time can lead to complications such as stroke and heart failure. Catheter ablation is an established treatment protocol...master thesis 2023

De Lat, B. (author)Background: An ablation catheter with integrated high-frequency single element ultrasound transducers has been developed by Philips Research, which makes it possible to assess tissue-depth and lesion formation in real-time. The interpretation of the acquired ultrasound M-mode images is difficult due to a combination of cardiac motion and motion...master thesis 2014

Godeschalk-Slagboom, C.J. (author), Van der Geest, R. (author), Zeppenfeld, K. (author), Botha, C.P. (author)Objective The integrated visualization of cardiac MRI during a ventricular tachycardia (VT) mapping and ablation procedure would provide improved catheter guidance and tissue assessment. We developed a system for and explored the added value of simultan o s visualization of intracardiac voltage measurements and MRI-derived myocardial scar...journal article 2012
