Mapping the Progression of Atrial Fibrillation Substrate: Insights from Left Atrial Wall Thickness and High-Density Voltage Mapping

Background/Objective: Advances in cardiac computed tomography (CT) now allow high-resolution, three-dimensional reconstruction of the left atrium, enabling precise quantification of left atrial wall thickness (LAWT). However, the relationship between LAWT and electrophysiological properties, particularly as assessed by...

Patient-Specific Atrial Simulations Reproducing Clinical Electrogram Biomarkers Under Pacing Stress Protocol

PVCuRe: a machine-learning based tool to predict left ventricular systolic function recovery in patients undergoing ablation for premature ventricular contraction.

This ML-based tool accurately estimates the probability of LVEF recovery after PVC ablation and may support clinical decision-making and patient counselling.
