ablación transvenosa con catéter
Scope note: Eliminación de tejidos por una corriente eléctrica suministrada por medio de electrodos colocados en el extremo distal de un catéter. Las fuentes de energía suelen ser corriente continua (choque de CC) o alterna de radiofrecuencias (usualmente 750 kHz). La técnica se usa más a menudo para realizar la ablación de la unión AV y-o de las vías accesorias con el fin de interrumpir la conducción AV y producir un bloqueo AV en el tratamiento de diversas taquiarritmias.

Scope note: Removal of tissue with electrical current delivered via electrodes positioned at the distal end of a catheter. Energy sources are commonly direct current (DC-shock) or alternating current at radiofrequencies (usually 750 kHz). The technique is used most often to ablate the AV junction and/or accessory pathways in order to interrupt AV conduction and produce AV block in the treatment of various tachyarrhythmias.
