Catheter ablation

Catheter ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that targets areas of heart tissue contributing to abnormal electrical signals. It is often considered when medications are not enough to control symptoms. Monitoring your symptoms before and after ablation may help you see how your heart rhythm changes over time.
