Clinical efficacy has driven the use of larger electrodes (7F, length > or =4 mm) for radiofrequency ablation, which reduces electrogram resolution and causes variability in tissue contact depending on electrode orientation. With active cooling, ablation electrode size may be reduced. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of electrode length on tissue temperature and lesion size with saline irrigation used for active cooling.
