pubmed:abstractText |
Cerebral embolism and stroke are feared complications of left atrial catheter ablation such as pulmonary vein (PV) ablation. In order to assess the thrombogenicity of left atrial catheter ablation, knowledge of both clinically evident as well as silent cerebral embolism is important. The aim of the current study was to examine the use of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI) for detection of cerebral embolism, apparent as well as silent, caused by PV catheter ablation.
