Abstract
The article presents data comparing the results of late gadolinium-enhanced magnetic-resonance imaging and bipolar mapping. The results of studies on the use of bipolar mapping data for substrate modification in catheter ablation of atrial fibrillation are presented, and perspectives for the development of the method are indicated.
