Due to the wide prevalence of various cardiac arrhythmias, new strategies for the treatment and management of patients with arrhythmias are being developed. One of the promising strategies for the correction of rhythm disturbances refractory to modern methods of treatment is stereotactic radio ablation of tachyarrhythmia’s using linear particle accelerators.
The publication presents an overview of experimental in the field of radio ablation of various parts of the heart in order to influence the substrate of arrhythmias; own experience of using stereotaxic radio ablation of the heart in an experiment on domestic pigs is described. .. View more»
