Figure 2. LACV, distance, and time
Left upper panel compares left atrial conduction velocities (LACVs) (A).
Anterior and posterior LACVs were slower in patients with AF recurrence
than in those without. Anterior route showed slower conduction velocity
than the posterior route, irrespective of AF recurrence. Right upper
panel compares left atrial conduction distances (B). The anterior route
demonstrated shorter distance irrespective of AF recurrence. Left lower
panel compares left atrial conduction time (C). Patients with AF
recurrence had a longer conduction time than those without. LACV, left
atrial conduction velocity; AF, atrial fibrillation.
