title: Use of electroanatomic voltage mapping to guide lead implantation in young adults with congenital heart disease.
abstract: Lead implantation in young adults with congenital heart disease is often problematic due to the reduction in the number of surgical access routes and consequent scar tissue formation related to previous surgery. In such a situation, anatomic and electromagnetic voltage mapping of the heart may be useful to find the optimal implantation site for sensing and pacing activities.
