Value of Detecting Peri ‐Device Leak and Incomplete Endothelialization by Cardiac CT Angiography in Atrial Fibrillation Patients Post Watchman LAAC Combined with Radiofrequency Ablation

CONCLUSIONSCCTA is feasible to evaluate PDL and device endothelialization after LAAC. The maximum diameter of LAA orifice derived from CT can independently predict the occurrence of post-LAAC PDL.This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
