New study compares high-tech heart mapping vs. standard x-ray for AFib treatment
NCT ID NCT07035288
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at 40 adults with atrial fibrillation (an irregular heartbeat) to compare two ways of performing a common treatment called pulmonary vein isolation. One method uses advanced 3D heart mapping, while the other relies on standard X-ray guidance. The goal was to see which approach leads to better long-term results and fewer side effects.
