CT scan roadmap may improve heart ablation success
NCT ID NCT04747353
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether a CT scan before a heart procedure could help doctors better target the source of a dangerous heart rhythm called ventricular tachycardia. 23 people who had a prior heart attack and needed catheter ablation took part. The approach aimed to see if using CT images to plan the procedure was feasible and safe.
