FIM into AP ablation procedures led to a significant reduction in radiation exposure, lowering FT from 7.4 to 2.8 min (p < .001) and dose-area product from 12.47 to 5.8 μGym² (p < .001). While the FIM group experienced a reasonable longer PT (69 vs. 50 min p < .001). FIM reduces FT regardless of operator experience and location of APs CONCLUSION: Combining FIM integration with conventional AP ablation offers reduced radiation exposure without compromising success rates and complication.
