Powered by the CARTO3 System, the high-density diagnostic catheter comes with small electrodes placed in a fixed array formation for delivering high-definition electrophysiological mapping of complex cardiac arrhythmia cases.

The arrhythmia cases include ventricular tachycardia, atrial tachycardia, persistent atrial fibrillation (AFib) and redo AFib ablation.

Featuring 48 electrodes that are symmetrically distributed across and along six splines, the new device is powered by the CARTO3 System and offers intelligent insights and high-resolution directional mapping.

The CARTO3 System provides local conduction vectors, which show the real-time direction and speed of the electrical impulses travelling through the heart.
