Discussion Topic: Late-Breaking Clinical Trials and Science: Randomized Clinical Trials
This late-breaking randomized trial, published online on April 26, 2025 in Heart Rhythm, demonstrated that using CT scan guidance for ventricular tachycardia (VT) ablation significantly shortens procedure time while maintaining a safety profile comparable to conventional methods. In essence, CT-guided ablation offers a faster, equally safe alternative for VT treatment. A discussion of the late breakers was recorded live in San Diego at Heart Rhythm 2025.
