Radiofrequency (RF) ablation involves delivering medium-to-high-frequency alternating current, which is electrically conducted to cardiac tissue that constitutes a part of the circuit. The unipolar circuitry contains the generator, transmission lines, catheter, cardiac tissue, interposed tissue and dispersive electrode (ground pad/indifferent electrode). Bipolar systems, whereby the RF current flows between two electrodes, either on the same […]
