* Describes best practices in Ventricular Tachycardia and Fibrillation Ablation based on a consensus of the world's leading experts, based on the annual 'Venice Arrythmias' meeting.
* Catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation has become a widespread, yet controversial, treatment modality in electrophysiology laboratories.
* Presents a comprehensive and up-to-date overview of all the most important and debated aspects of atrial fibrillation ablation.
* Covers all key topics, from pre- and intra-procedural management to best techniques and outcomes for patients with and without structural HD to Indications for VT/VF ablation and hybrid therapy to future tools and treatment options.
