Impact of the type of electroanatomic mapping system on the incidence of cerebral embolism after radiofrequency catheter ablation of left atrial tachycardias

Left atrial tachycardias (ATs) often occur after left atrial ablation. The incidence of symptomatic and silent cerebral embolism after radiofrequency catheter ablation of left ATs and the impact of the type of 3-dimesional electroanatomic mapping (3D-EAM) system on the incidence of cerebral embolism remain unclear.
