Abstract
This study shows that CT-based EFP-guided CNA for CI-VVS is feasible, can assist RF delivery with high precision, and has the potential to overcome the interpatient variability that affects CNA when performed solely by anatomic landmarks. Further larger studies with longer follow-up are required to improve CT-based identification of GPs and our understanding of GP pathophysiology.
