Figure 5From: Direct cooling of the catheter tip increases safety for CMR-guided electrophysiological proceduresTemperature distribution at different distances from the catheter tip: 0 mm, 2 mm, 4 mm, and 6 mm from the catheter tip and the interface surface. Higher contact pressures require higher irrigation rates to achieve similar cooling effects. Each test started at the baseline temperature, e.g. the prior tests did not influence the following test results.Back to article page
