Vektor’s vMap Technology Used Alongside SAbR Planning Software (Varian, Palo Alto, CA) for Non-Invasive Mapping and Radio-ablation of Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia

Life-threatening heart rhythm disorders such as ventricular tachycardia may be eliminated using cutting-edge, non-invasive technology as an alternative to standard invasive catheter ablation procedures, in some cases. In an abstract and associated poster published at the American College of Physicians’ Southern Regional Conference, researchers report successful use of vMap™ technology to guide stereotactic radiotherapy to destroy diseased heart tissue. Researchers report that this non-invasive mapping and ablation has “shown tremendous promise in recent years.” Importantly, for this patient, his “shock burden decreased from 34 ICD shocks in the 6 months preceding … therapy to 0 ICD shocks in the 11 months after treatment. His quality of life improved significantly, and he has resumed an active lifestyle”.
