Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-guided interventional electrophysiology (EP) has rapidly emerged as a promising alternative to x-ray-guided ablation. We aimed to evaluate an externally irrigated MRI-compatible ablation catheter and integrated EP pacing and recording system, testing the feasibility of pulmonary vein and cavo-tricuspid isthmus ablation.
