Comparison of lesion characteristics using temperature-flow-controlled versus conventional power-controlled ablation with fixed ablation index.

With a fixed target AI, TFC-ablation reduced the risk of steam-pops, producing similar lesions in volume, but with different metrics in this ex-vivo study. However, lower CF and higher power in fixed-AI ablation may increase the risk of steam-pops. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved.
