Pediheart Podcast # 2 - Encore Edition With Improved Sound Quality - Radiation Ablation of Arrhythmias + Global Cardiology




Pediheart: Pediatric Cardiology Today show

Summary: This week we replay the 2nd podcast in the series. Dr. George Ofori of Montefiore reviews a recent paper on a project in Angola to provide outstanding congenital cardiovascular care in that nation and the challenges associated with these sorts of projects and we also review an extraordinary report of non-invasive ablation of severe ventricular arrhythmias using radiation. Can arrhythmias be ablated successfully without even placing a catheter in the heart? This recent article from The New England Journal suggests that this may be an exciting paradigm shift in electrophysiology. We will be back with a new podcast next week!
