Correlation between the LI drop and lesion size at each
catheter contact angle
Figure 6 shows the correlations between the LI drop and lesion size at
each catheter contact angle. The approximate curves were well fitted
with a natural logarithm equation at all angles on the LI drop vs. the
maximum lesion width (Figures 6A and 6C) and the lesion depth (Figure 6B
and 6D) in the MiFi (upper) and STABLEPOINT (lower) models. Thus, the LI
drops were correlated with maximum lesion widths and lesion depths at
any angle for both ablation catheters.
