AtriCure’s linear pen is the latest linear ablation and mapping device that combines the capability to produce 20 mm linear ablations and perform pace, sense, stimulate functions. Using resistive heating, full thickness lesions are created with two 20 mm electrodes. As a result, energy is driven deeper into the tissue, reducing the potential for gaps.
The Isolator Linear Pen is intended to both diagnose cardiac arrhythmias and ablate cardiac tissue.
