Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of catheter<br /><br>localization using the NorthStar software during real-time MRI-guided cardiac<br /><br>ablation therapy. At the start of the procedure, the catheters will be<br /><br>manoeuvred to the predefined areas within the right side of the heart based on<br /><br>the specific electrical signals in that area. These locations will be virtually<br /><br>marked within the NorthStar software. The extent to which these markers<br /><br>maintain their spatial coordinates after the ablation procedure, evaluated by<br /><br>obtained electrical signals, will serve as a quantitative measure of the<br /><br>system's accuracy.</p><br>
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
<p>To investigate the influence of additional factors, such as breathing pattern,<br /><br>procedure duration, complications during ablation, and patient characteristics,<br /><br>on the pre- and post-ablation marker distance. This secondary objective will<br /><br>complement the primary objective of evaluating the accuracy of the NorthStar<br /><br>software.</p><br>
