ATRIAL SIGNALS 2017

Research and development has brought many significant advances to electrophysiological examinations of the atria in recent years. Electroanatomical mapping systems reduce radiation, multichannel catheters allow for simultaneous high density mapping, and computer modeling enhances comprehension of signal generation and the mechanisms of arrhythmias. However, despite all these efforts, atrial fibrillation still poses a major problem for clinicians.

Joint collaboration between experts – clinicians and engineers – provides the best chance to cope with this challenge. This is the goal of our workshop – to bring together the leading experts from these areas, and to provide a scenario for open discussion.
