Background The lesion size index (LSI) predicts radiofrequency (RF) ablation lesion size and is an established parameter for pulmonary vein isolation. However, the effectiveness and safety of LSI for cavotricuspid isthmus (CTI) linear ablation remain unclear. Methods This single-center retrospective...
