Cardiac RADIoablation Versus Repeat Catheter Ablation: a Pivotal Randomized Clinical Trial Evaluating Safety and Efficacy for Patients With High-risk Refractory Ventricular Tachycardia
Varian, a Siemens Healthineers Company
Summary
RADIATE-VT is a pivotal, multicenter, randomized trial comparing safety and efficacy between cardiac radioablation (CRA) using the Varian CRA System and repeat catheter ablation (CA), for patients with high-risk refractory ventricular tachycardia (VT) who have experienced VT recurrence after CA and are candidates for additional CA.
