Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common heart rhythm disorder in humans, and a rapidly growing epidemic in Australia. AF occurs because electrical circuits called rotors take over the top chambers of the heart. Until now, ablation procedures to target AF have not been able to specifically target rotors, which has meant operations are often long and arduous. This project uses new mathematical techniques we have developed to localise rotors driving AF, aiming to develop a faster safer and more effective AF ablation.

心房颤动（AF）是人类最常见的心律失常，在澳大利亚也是一种快速增长的流行病。房颤的发生是因为被称为转子的电路接管了心脏的顶部腔室。到目前为止，针对AF的消融手术还不能专门针对转子，这意味着手术往往是漫长而艰巨的。该项目使用我们开发的新数学技术来定位驱动AF的转子，旨在开发更快、更安全、更有效的AF消融。
