Article Synopsis
- Micro-anatomical reentry has been recognized as a key factor contributing to atrial fibrillation (AF), prompting the study of atrial regions most vulnerable to it.
- The authors propose a new computational method that uses modeling to understand how interstitial fibrosis affects micro-reentry, focusing on spatial network phenomena.
- Results indicate that densely clustered micro-reentrant substrates usually occur in areas with thin, convex atrial walls, but as fibrosis increases, this clustering diminishes, potentially impacting the success of localized treatments like ablation.
