Shannon entropy mapping - AF ablation from "first principles"

房颤(AF)是人类最常见的心律失常，在澳大利亚也是一种迅速蔓延的流行病。房颤的发生是因为称为转子的电路占据了心脏顶部的心腔。到目前为止，针对房颤的消融程序还不能特别针对转子，这意味着手术往往是漫长而艰巨的。这个项目使用了我们开发的新的数学技术来定位驱动房颤的转子，旨在开发一种更快、更安全、更有效的房颤消融。

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.
