Abstract Background and Objective: Cardiac electrophysiology is a medical specialty with a
long and rich tradition of computational modeling. Nevertheless, no community standard for …

Computational simulations of cardiac electrophysiology provide detailed information on the
depolarization phenomena at different spatial and temporal scales. With the development of …

Aims The long-term success rate of ablation therapy is still sub-optimal in patients with
persistent atrial fibrillation (AF), mostly due to arrhythmia recurrence originating from …

Aims Atrial cardiomyopathy (ACM) is associated with increased arrhythmia recurrence rates
after pulmonary vein isolation (PVI). We compare the most common left atrial (LA) late …

The arrhythmogenesis of atrial fibrillation is associated with the presence of fibrotic atrial
tissue. Not only fibrosis but also physiological anatomical variability of the atria and the …

During atrial fibrillation, cardiac tissue undergoes different remodeling processes at different
scales from the molecular level to the tissue level. One central player that contributes to both …

Aims Electro-anatomical voltage, conduction velocity (CV) mapping, and late gadolinium
enhancement (LGE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) have been correlated with atrial …

Background: Presence of left atrial low voltage substrate in bipolar voltage mapping is
associated with increased arrhythmia recurrences following pulmonary vein isolation for …

In patients with atrial fibrillation, intracardiac electrogram signal amplitude is known to
decrease with increased structural tissue remodeling, referred to as fibrosis. In addition to …

The occurrence of atrial fibrillation (AF), one of the most socially significant arrhythmias, is
associated with the presence of areas of fibrosis. Fibrosis introduces conduction …
