Magnet-guided heart procedure cuts radiation, study finds
NCT ID NCT02587624
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a remote magnetic catheter ablation technique for treating atrial fibrillation, a common heart rhythm problem. Researchers followed 804 patients to see how safe the procedure was, how much radiation it used, and how well it worked. The goal was to improve routine care by reducing radiation exposure while still effectively isolating the pulmonary veins.
