摘要: In pulmonary vein isolation as a treatment for atrial fibrillation the proximal part of veins is catheterized. A protocol preinterventional assessment anatomy was developed, based on contrast‐enhanced magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) in combination with three‐dimensional visualization to tailor periprocedural angiography. The results allow number, morphology, and location ostia veins, well complicating anatomical variations, such common trunks aberrant courses.
