MAP recordings are uniquely suited to detect early and delayed afterdepolarizations in the human heart, thereby helping to unravel the arrhythmia mechanisms in the long QT syndrome. By embedding the MAP electrode in a radiofrequency electrode, arrhythmogenic foci may be both detected and ablated. ...
