Radiofrequency catheter ablation is a method of selectively destroying cardiac tissue to treat various arrhythmias. In a relatively short time, it has evolved from an investigational tool to a widely applied clinical technique (1). This article reviews the current status of radiofrequency catheter ablation and reports on the results of its initial clinical use in 14 patients at West Virginia University Hospital.
